Abstract
In a small randomized controlled trial, a 12-month course of enoxaparin was safe and effective in preventing PVT in patients with cirrhosis and a Child-Pugh score of 7-10. Enoxaparin appeared to delay the occurrence of hepatic decompensation and to improve survival. www.isrctn.>org: ISRCTN32383354; www.clinicaltrialsregister.eu: EudraCT2007-007890-22.
