Portopulmonary Hypertension.
Portopulmonary Hypertension. Clinics in liver disease Lai, Y. K., Kwo, P. Y. 2023; 27 (1): 71-84Abstract
PoPH is a well-recognized complication of portal hypertension with or without cirrhosis and is classified as a subset of PAH. Identification of PoPH is crucial as it has a major impact on prognosis and liver transplant candidacy. Echocardiogram is the initial screening tool of choice and the patient should proceed to RHC for confirmation. PAH-directed therapy is the treatment of choice, allowing the patient to achieve a hemodynamic threshold to undergo a liver transplant safely.
