Diagnostic efficacy of noninvasive liver fibrosis indexes in predicting portal hypertension in patients with cirrhosis
BACKGROUND Recent data suggest that noninvasive liver fibrosis indexes could be useful for predicting esophageal varices (EV) in cirrhotic patients. However, thus far, the diagnostic efficacy of these indexes in predicting portal hypertension (PH) in cirrhotic patients has been poorly evaluated. AIMS To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of noninvasive liver fibrosis indexes in the diagnosis of...
متن کاملBiopsy-Controlled Liver Fibrosis Staging Using the Enhanced Liver Fibrosis (ELF) Score Compared to Transient Elastography
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Chronic liver diseases are characterized by inflammatory and fibrotic liver injuries that often result in liver cirrhosis with its associated complications such as portal hypertension and hepatocellular carcinoma. Liver biopsy still represents the reference standard for fibrosis staging, although transient elastography is increasingly used for non-invasive monitoring of fibr...
متن کاملImpact of clinically significant portal hypertension on surgical outcomes for hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with compensated liver cirrhosis: a propensity score matching analysis
BACKGROUNDS/AIMS The roles of portal hypertension (PHT) on the postoperative course after hepatectomy are still debated. The aim of this study was to evaluate surgical outcomes of hepatectomy in patients with PHT. METHODS Data from 152 cirrhotic patients who underwent hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) were collected retrospectively. Patients were divided into two groups according...
متن کاملLiver cirrhosis and portal hypertension in cystic fibrosis.
INTRODUCTION As the expected survival improves in individuals with the cystic fibrosis (CF), so they may be faced with a number of medical complications. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to analyze the prevalence of liver cirrhosis in our CF population as well as the clinical and genetic characteristics of these patients. METHODS All patients older than 2 years (n = 96) were screened for...
