Angiogenesis and portal-systemic collaterals in portal hypertension
In patients with advanced liver disease with portal hypertension, portal-systemic collaterals contribute to circulatory disturbance, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, hepatic encephalopathy, ascites, hepatopulmonary syndrome and portopulmonary hypertension. Angiogenesis has a pivotal role in the formation of portal-systemic shunts.

Thrombosis of the portal venous system [PDF]
Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) is a rare cause of portal hypertension. Its diagnosis has been facilitated by improvements in imaging techniques, in particular Doppler sonography. The prevalence is about 1% in the general population, but much higher rates are observed in patients with hepatic cirrhosis (7%, range 0.6-17%), particularly those who also have

Extrahepatic Portal-Systemic Encephalopathy without Portal Hypertension.
We report three cases of extrahepatic portal-systemic encephalopathy (EHPSE), two of which did not show portal hypertension (PH) and in the other of which precirrhotic state with chronic active hepatitis was detected at liver biopsy. Our review of the literature regarding EHPSE without PH leads us to conclude that a part of the shunts is congenitally ...

Extrahepatic aneurysm of the portal venous system and portal hypertension
Portal venous aneurysm (PVA) is a rare condition characterized by dilatation of the portal venous system. PVA manifestation of symptoms is varied and depends on the aneurysm size, location and related-complications, such as thrombosis. While the majority of reported cases of PVA are attributed to portal hypertension, very little is known about the ...
