Change in Portal Pressure and Clinical Outcome in Cirrhotic Patients with Gastric Varices after Plug-Assisted Retrograde Transvenous Obliteration [PDF]

open access: diamondGut and Liver, 2020
Background/Aims: Plug-assisted retrograde transvenous obliteration (PARTO) is widely used to manage gastric varices with a portosystemic shunt. It is not clear whether portal pressure and the incidence of complications increase after PARTO.

Endoscopic ultrasound-guided portal pressure gradient measurement in managing portal hypertension. [PDF]

open access: yesWorld J Gastrointest Surg, 2023
Portal hypertension (PH) is still a challenging clinical condition due to its silent manifestations in the early stage and needs to be measured accurately for early detection. Hepatic vein pressure gradient measurement has been considered as the gold standard measurement for PH; however, it needs special skill, experience, and high expertise. Recently,

Correlation of hepatic artery resistive index with portal pressure and serum nitric oxide levels in patients with extrahepatic portal vein obstruction

open access: yesJournal of Indian Association of Pediatric Surgeons, 2020
Aim: The aim was to study the correlation of hepatic artery resistive index (HARI) with the portal pressure (PP) and its surrogate marker serum nitric oxide (NO) levels and to determine the validity of HARI as noninvasive indirect marker of PP in ...
