Description
Advances in our knowledge of the pathogenesis and management of portal hypertension and its complications over the last 2 decades have been astronomical. However, most of the management strategies remain palliative and serves as a bridge to liver transplantation. Despite the availability of a number of books in the field of hepatology, portal hypertension as the main life-threatening complication needs a dedicated book to link between recent advances in research and current clinical practice. This book includes dedicated chapters on gastric varices management, ectopic varices management, sinusoidal obstruction syndrome, portal hypertensive bilopathy, portal hypertension as a risk factor in nonhepatic abdominal surgery, idiopathic portal hypertension, and portal hypertension in pregnancy. As all other chapters, they represent updates on the recent advances and were written by well-known experts in such areas. It also includes a self-assessment section for evaluation of the level benefit obtained from reading this book. Many illustrations, tables, lists, algorithms, figures, and colour plates are included to serve the educational purpose of this book.
