Microbubble‐Based Ultrasound Contrast Agents in Contrast‐Enhanced Ultrasonography for Managing Portal Hypertension in Cirrhosis

open access: yesPortal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 260-268, September 2026.
As the hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) remains the current gold standard for diagnosing portal hypertension in cirrhosis, its clinical application is limited by invasiveness, high cost, and restricted availability. Given the urgent need for noninvasive techniques to dynamically monitor portal vein pressure (PVP), contrast‐enhanced ...

Endoscopic Treatment for Esophagogastric Variceal Bleeding in Patients With Acute‐on‐Chronic Liver Failure: An Observational Study

open access: yesPortal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 226-240, September 2026.
In patients with acute‐on‐chronic liver failure (ACLF), esophagogastric variceal bleeding (EGVB) represents a critical complication associated with high short‐term mortality. This study evaluated the efficacy of endoscopic treatment in this specific population and identified prognostic factors associated with 6‐week rebleeding and mortality.

A Case of Ileal Conduit Bleeding Caused by Porto‐Sinusoidal Vascular Disorder

open access: yesPortal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 283-286, September 2026.
ABSTRACT A 60‐year‐old man presented with recurrent stomal bleeding for 3 years. He had undergone cystoprostatectomy with ileal conduit diversion for bladder cancer 7 years prior. Endoscopy revealed multiple protruding lesions (0.6–0.8 cm) inside the stoma, which were initially suspected to be ectopic varices given concomitant esophageal varices and ...

Porto‐Sinusoidal Vascular Disorder‐Spectrum Portal Venopathy as a Structural Substrate for Portal Hypertension in Anti‐Centromere Antibody‐Positive Primary Biliary Cholangitis

open access: yesPathology International, Volume 76, Issue 9, September 2026.
Anti‐centromere antibody‐positive primary biliary cholangitis‐spectrum disease may present with portal hypertension disproportionate to liver stiffness. In this series of three patients, portal tract‐based histology showed portal venopathy with porto‐sinusoidal vascular disorder‐spectrum features, supported by venographic, elastographic, and ...

Reinforcing the management of type 1 gastric esophageal varices

open access: yesWorld Journal of Gastroenterology
Variceal bleed represents an important complication of cirrhosis, with its presence reflecting the severity of liver disease. Gastric varices, though less frequently seen than esophageal varices, present a distinct clinical challenge due to its higher intensity of bleeding and associated mortality.
