Case Study A 55-year old male patient, married with three children, has had the history of Hepatitis C that is now chronic, and in the recent past that same progressed into cirrhosis. In the 1960s the patient used intravenous drugs and late in the year 1975, he had several transfusion due to trauma, and this increased the risk factor of the hepatitis C (Clinical Key 2013). Due to bleeding of esophageal varices in the year 2001, the condition complicated cirrhosis, however this was later brought under control using the endoscopic banding that proved effective.
