Abstract:
The therapeutic management of hepatic portal hypertension in patients with cirrhosis is still a challenge. At present surgical devascularization and shunting play the important roles in treatment of portal hypertension. While some cirrhotic patients can not bear the stress of operation and anesthesia because of inadequat potential hepatic function. So the mortality of operation is very high. With the development of endoscopy,radiological techniques and new materials and equipments, the mini invasive treatments become more important. This review summarizes the current advances of mini invasive treatments of portal hypertension in cirrhosis.
