What is Portal Hypertension about?
Portal hypertension is a condition marked by increased pressure in the portal venous system, typically due to resistance to blood flow, leading to complications such as varices and ascites. It is defined by a portal venous pressure exceeding 10mmHg and can arise from various pre-hepatic, hepatic, and posthepatic causes. Management includes general measures, specific treatments for complications, and interventions to reduce portal pressure.
