PATHOPHYSIOLOGY OF PORTAL HYPERTENSION [PDF]
Clinics in Liver Disease, 1964 Portal hypertension is a major complication of liver disease that results from a variety of pathologic conditions that increase the resistance to the portal blood flow into the liver. As portal hypertension develops, the formation of collateral vessels and arterial vasodilation progresses, which results in increased blood flow to the portal circulation.

Paediatrica Indonesiana, 2017 A case of portal hypertension in a 9-year-old Indonesian female child is presented. The diagnosis was made by demonstrating oesophageal vanices radiologically and surgically, and by measuring the portal venous pressure. Portocaval side to side shunt was done resulting in diminishing of the oesophageal varices, disappearance of hypersplenism, and a ...

Mechanobiology of portal hypertension
JHEP Reports, 2023 The interplay between mechanical stimuli and cellular mechanobiology orchestrates the physiology of tissues and organs in a dynamic balance characterized by constant remodelling and adaptative processes. Environmental mechanical properties can be interpreted as a complex set of information and instructions that cells read continuously, and to which ...

Biology of portal hypertension [PDF]
Hepatology International, 2017 Portal hypertension develops as a result of increased intrahepatic vascular resistance often caused by chronic liver disease that leads to structural distortion by fibrosis, microvascular thrombosis, dysfunction of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs), and hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation.

Portal hypertension in children [PDF]
Clinical Liver Disease, 2012 Recommended approaches to the management of portal hypertension and esophageal varices in children continue to rely on expert opinion, low‐quality pediatric studies, and the extrapolation of the results of studies in adult populations. There is a pressing need for high‐quality pediatric studies, and expert panels recently have itemized the priorities ...
