Unilateral Giant Varicocele Mimicking Inguinal Hernia Resulting from Portosystemic Shunt without Evidence of Portal Hypertension: An Unusual Case Report

Case Reports in Surgery, 2013
Isolated giant varicocele has been reported with portal hypertension that results in abnormal communication between portal venous system and testicular vein venous system resulting in retrograde backflow of blood into the testicular venous system which ...

Cancer-Associated Thrombosis in Cirrhotic Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma. [PDF]

, 2018
It is common knowledge that cancer patients are more prone to develop venous thromboembolic complications (VTE). It is therefore not surprising that patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) present with a significant risk of VTE, with the portal vein

Non-cirrhotic portal fibrosis

International Journal of Advanced Medical and Health Research, 2014
Portal hypertension occurs commonly in patients with cirrhosis and rarely in those without cirrhosis of liver. The two most important causes of non-cirrhotic portal hypertension are non-cirrhotic portal fibrosis (NCPF) and extrahepatic portal venous ...

Oesophageal Variceal-Pulmonary Venous Fistula - A Rare Cause of a Right-to-Left Shunt

European Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine, 2020
Oesophageal varices are a dilated submucosal venous plexus in the lower third of the oesophagus which result from increased pressure in the portal venous system. The portal system is connected to the systemic circulation in specific locations referred to

NG-Nitro-L-arginine Methyl Ester, but Not Methylene Blue, Attenuates Anaphylactic Hypotension in Anesthetized Mice

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2007
To clarify the role of NO in mouse anaphylactic hypotension, effects of a nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor, NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), on antigen-induced hypotension and portal hypertension were determined in anesthetized BALB/c mice.

TNF receptor–related factor 3 inactivation promotes the development of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma through NF‐κB‐inducing kinase–mediated hepatocyte transdifferentiation

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Background and Aims Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a deadly but poorly understood disease, and its treatment options are very limited. The aim of this study was to identify the molecular drivers of ICC and search for therapeutic targets.

Portosystemic collateral pathways and interventions in portal hypertension

Gastrointestinal Intervention, 2018
Pathologic increase in portal pressure can be caused by increased resistance to blood flow at the level of the portal vein (pre-hepatic), hepatic sinusoids (hepatic) or hepatovenous outflow (post-hepatic).

Targeted decrease of portal hepatic pressure gradient improves ascites control after TIPS

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
The river diagram demonstrates that after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt insertion (TIPS) the majority of patients without ascites and 50% of the patients with ascites detectable at ultrasound, show the best response in the long term follow‐up.

Genetic predisposition to porto‐sinusoidal vascular disorder: A functional genomic‐based, multigenerational family study

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
A deleterious variant of FCHSD1 results in mTOR pathway overactivation and may cause porto‐sinusoidal vascular disorder (PSVD). The pedigree of the family demonstrated an autosomal dominant disease with variable expressivity. Whole‐genome sequencing and Sanger sequencing both validated the existence of the FCHSD1 variant and the heterozygosity of c ...
