The main cause of portal hypertension is cirrhosis - the end stage of any chronic liver disease. Patients with cirrhosis present clinically with 2 main syndromes: hepatic dysfunction syndrome and portal hypertension.

Gastrointestinal bleeding due to rupture of esophageal varices ranks first in terms of bleeding, patients have symptoms of vomiting blood with a significant amount, sometimes massive bleeding causing death before emergency treatment. This is one of the causes of increased mortality in cirrhotic patients.

I have a sister in Vietnam who is suffering from liver disease and bleeding twice and has also had her arteries ligated twice. My sister's medical history has diabetes. So the doctor asked me if people with liver disease and diabetes can use TIPS? I thank the doctor and look forward to the response so that the family can save my sister.

Gastrointestinal bleeding is a dangerous complication of portal hypertension. There are many causes of gastrointestinal bleeding due to portal hypertension, in which the main cause is cirrhosis.

Gastrointestinal bleeding is a very dangerous complication of portal hypertension. Depending on the patient's condition and the professional ability of the medical facility, the mortality rate of this disease can range from 20 to 80%.

Portal hypertension is a common disease in many medical conditions today, but patients and their families are still not really interested in what portal hypertension is. Understanding the importance of this disease as well as knowing the causes of portal hypertension will help the treatment of portal hypertension more effectively.

Portal hypertension is a condition of increased pressure in the veins that is common in many diseases. Portal hypertension causes many dangerous complications and can lead to death if not diagnosed and treated promptly, including complications of gastrointestinal bleeding.

Portal hypertension can occur in many different diseases and is often difficult to detect until the disease causes complications. Treatment of portal hypertension is mainly surgical treatment.

Portal hypertension due to cirrhosis can cause serious complications such as gastrointestinal bleeding due to ruptured esophageal and gastric varices. If not treated promptly, it can be life-threatening. Digital subtraction angiography and percutaneous portosystemic shunting (TIPS) is a very effective treatment method in preventing complications of portal hypertension in cirrhosis.

DSA - digital subtraction angiography is a technique of capturing images of blood vessels using X-rays. This technique can be applied to many different blood vessels in the body, including the splenic-portal vein. So how does the digital subtraction angiography process of the splenic-portal vein take place?

Digital subtraction splenic vein angiography and intervention is a modern method to diagnose and treat by causing partial or complete embolization of the venous branches of the splenic-portal system.
