Abstract:
Liver cirrhosis is a common cause of portal vein thrombosis (PVT), and the patients with liver cirrhosis complicated by PVT tend to experience complications such as intractable ascites, upper gastrointestinal bleeding, and intestinal necrosis, which may lead to serious consequences and threaten the patient′s life. This article briefly overviews PVT and discusses the reasons and mechanisms of the development of PVT during liver cirrhosis, as well as the diagnosis and treatment of PVT and related controversial issues.
