Continuous elevation of procalcitonin in cirrhosis combined with hepatic carcinoma: a case report

BACKGROUND: Serum levels of procalcitonin (PCT) are considered a useful biomarker for the diagnosis of bacterial infection or inflammation. There are few reports of high PCT levels in end-stage liver disease regardless of bacterial infection. Here, we present a case of extremely high PCT levels (>...
