CTGF/CCN2 plays an important role in the formation and development of hepatic fibrosis. This study determined the correlation between serum CTGF/CCN2 and stages of hepatic fibrosis and explored the clinical value of serum CTGF/CCN2 in the assessment of hepatic fibrosis in chronic hepatitis B. This cross sectional study was done in department of Clinical Pathology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Dhaka from March 2012 to February 2013. Serum CTGF was measured by using of a sandwich immunoassay technique. Forty (40) chronic hepatitis B patients were included in this study. The sensitivity of CTGF/CCN2 was 71.6%, specificity 67.5%. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient was 0.652 between serum CTGF/CCN2 and stages of hepatic fibrosis (p<0.001). The area under receiver-operating curve (ROC) was 0.750 for identification of hepatic fibrosis. This present data revealed that serum CTGF/CCN2 in chronic hepatitis B were strongly associated with stages of hepatic fibrosis. CTGF/CCN2 may useful diagnostic tool for assessing the hepatic fibrosis in chronic hepatitis B.
