Abstract:
Liver cirrhosis is the most common cause of portal hypertension. Portal hypertension can cause complications such as esophageal and gastric varices, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, hepatorenal syndrome, and hepatic encephalopathy. For the standardized diagnosis and treatment of portal hypertension, we should pay attention to primary diseases and whole-course treatment, emphasize whole-course chain management including early screening and early diagnosis, active prevention, and reasonable emergency treatment, and formulate individualized and precise prevention and treatment plans for patients.
