Clinics in Liver Disease, 2019
Portal hypertension (PH) is a clinical syndrome resulting from the combination of increased portal blood flow and increased portal resistance and characterized by an increase in the portosystemic gradient beyond the physiological value of 5 mmHg. PH is a common complication in patients with chronic liver disease, both adults and children, and its major

Many advances in the management of portal hypertension and variceal hemorrhage have occurred during the last 10 years. Effective therapy for primary prevention of variceal hemorrhage is now available in the form of nonselective beta-blockers. Active bleeding should be managed with terlipressin, somatostatin or its analogues, and endoscopic therapy ...

Portal Hypertensive Gastropathy
Baillière's Clinical Gastroenterology, 1991There is now substantial clinical evidence to suggest that portal hypertensive gastropathy is an important source of gastrointestinal bleeding in patients with portal hypertension. Although a relatively uncommon presenting feature in such patients, it appears to become progressively more frequent and important the longer such patients with bleeding ...

Portal hypertension is a frequent syndrome characterized by a chronic increase in portal venous pressure and by the formation of portal-systemic collaterals. Its main consequence is massive bleeding from ruptured esophageal and gastric varices. Bleeding is promoted by increased portal and variceal pressure, and is favored by dilatation of the varices ...

Portal‐hypertensive gastropathy
Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 1998ABSTRACTIn the present article we describe updated information concerning the clinical feature of portal‐hypertensive gastropathy (PHG), which is characterized by mucosal and submucosal vascular dilatation without inflammation. Although this lesion represents non‐variceal bleeding, there is a wide variation of its prevalence.
