DOI: 10.1016/j.advms.2022.02.005
Abstract: PURPOSE Portal hypertension (PH)-associated splenomegaly is caused by portal venous congestion and splanchnic hyperemia. This can trigger hypersplenism, which favors the development of cytopenia. We investigated the time-dependent impact of splenectomy on portal pressure and… read more here.

Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided portal pressure gradient with liver biopsy: 6 years of endo‐hepatology in practice
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology"
DOI: 10.1111/jgh.15875
Abstract: The portal pressure gradient (PPG) is a useful predictor of portal hypertension (PH) related complications. We previously showed the feasibility and safety of endoscopic ultrasound guided PPG measurement (EUS‐PPG). Now EUS‐guided liver biopsy (EUS‐bx) has… read more here.
