Aim of the Study: To study the liver function tests in congestive cardiac failure and the relationship between liver function test and remission and exacerbation of congestive cardiac failure. Material and Methods: All cases of congestive cardiac failure (100), of varied etiologies observed in patients from July 2020 to December 2021. This study is an observational study, comparing the liver functions between cases (various causes of heart failure) and between cases and controls. Results: 24 patients with rheumatic heart disease,17 patients showed abnormal liver function (72%), Of the 18 patients with cor pulmonale 12 showed abnormal liver function (69%). In 6 patients with hypertensive heart disease 3 showed abnormal liver function (57%), whereas in 38 patients with coronary artery heart disease, 27 showed abnormal liver function (73%) 10 out of 14 patients with cardiomyopathy showed abnormal liver function. Conclusion: Liver function abnormalities were mostly present in patients with coronary artery disease (73%) and rheumatic valvular heart disease (70%) developing heart failure.
