A 55-year-old man with a past medical history of chronic liver disease and small esophageal varices on upper gastrointestinal endoscopy underwent endoscopic ultrasound-guided portal pressure gradient (EUS-PPG) measurement. The materials that were used to perform the procedure were: a pressure monitor, a pressurization bag, a 22G fine-needle aspiration (FNA) needle, and heparinized saline. The system was zeroed at the right mid-axillary line (▶Fig. 1). A curvilinear array echoendoscope (GFUCT180, Olympus, Tokyo, Japan) that allowed color Doppler imaging was placed in the stomach to visualize the hepatic vascular anatomy. E-Videos
