Multifrequency Multiparameter Magnetic Resonance Elastography Applied to an In Vivo Porcine Model for Assessing Portal Hypertension

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
Portal hypertension, a critical complication in chronic liver disease, has long relied on invasive hepatic venous pressure gradient measurement for definitive diagnosis. This study establishes that multifrequency three‐dimensional magnetic resonance elastography (3D‐MRE) can noninvasively quantify portal pressure, with splenic stiffness and loss ...

Selective embolization of the splenic vein for shunt-preserving disconnection of the portal and systemic circulation: Report of two cases

Acta Radiologica Open, 2012
In carefully selected patients with portosystemic encephalopathy, it is possible to safely disconnect the portal and systemic circulation while preserving the shunt.

Surgical portosystemic shunts versus transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt for variceal haemorrhage in people with cirrhosis.

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2018
BACKGROUND Variceal haemorrhage that is refractory or recurs after pharmacologic and endoscopic therapy requires a portal decompression shunt (either surgical shunts or radiologic shunt, transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS)).

The Use of Non‐Selective Beta‐Blockers in Cirrhotic Portal Hypertension

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
Non‐selective beta‐blockers (NSBBs) reduce portal pressure and play a key role in preventing variceal bleeding, managing ascites, and preventing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in cirrhotic patients. Their clinical application requires individualized strategies and further optimization of indications. ABSTRACT Liver cirrhosis is the end stage of various

Portal vein hypoplasia in dogs [PDF]

, 2014
Portal vein hypoplasia (PVH) is a congenital disorder, in which microscopic intrahepatic shunts are present, causing blood to bypass the liver sinusoids.

Balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration for the treatment of gastric varices. [PDF]

, 2012
Clinical Perspectives in Hepatology aims to engage two experts with opinions supporting differing perspectives on the management of a case. Typically, the case represents an area of debate or evolving practice in clinical hepatology.

Liver stiffness measured by transient elastography as predictor of prognoses following portosystemic shunt occlusion

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2018
This study aimed to identify predictors of model for end‐stage liver disease sodium score reductions and improvements in vital prognoses following portosystemic shunt occlusion in portal hypertension patients.

Biomarkers of Extracellular Matrix Remodelling Are Linked to Severity and Outcome of Advanced Chronic Liver Disease

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Extracellular matrix (ECM) remodelling biomarkers reflect portal hypertension and disease severity in advanced chronic liver disease (ACLD). However, their predictive value for disease progression is largely restricted to compensated ACLD (cACLD). ABSTRACT Background Extracellular matrix (ECM) remodelling in advanced chronic liver disease (ACLD) is ...
