Imaging-guided interventions modulating portal venous flow: Evidence and controversiesKey points

JHEP Reports, 2022
Summary: Portal hypertension is defined by an increase in the portosystemic venous gradient. In most cases, increased resistance to portal blood flow is the initial cause of elevated portal pressure.

EUS-guided portal pressure gradient measurement in patients with acute or subacute portal hypertension.

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 2020
BACKGROUND AND AIMS EUS-guided portal pressure gradient (PPG) measurement is a novel method to evaluate portal hypertension severity. In this study, we determined the consistency between EUS-PPG and hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) measurements in

Elevated Gastric Antrum Erosions in Portal Hypertension Patients: Peptic Disease or Mucosal Congestion?

The Korean Journal of Gastroenterology, 2017
Background/Aims: Portal hypertension (PH) is a syndrome characterized by chronic increase in the pressure gradient between the portal vein and inferior vena cava. Previous studies have suggested an increased frequency of antral elevated erosive gastritis
