Hepatic vitamin E may have a protective effect against hepatocyte injury; therefore, vitamin E replacement or supplementation may be beneficial in patients with cirrhosis. However, serum vitamin E may not correlate with hepatic vitamin E stores, making decisions regarding treatment difficult based on serum levels alone. The specific aims of this study were to determine hepatic concentrations of vitamin E and to determine whether serum levels of vitamin E correlate with hepatic vitamin E stores in cirrhotics.
