This book will be an excellent tool for practitioners seeking an
update on the latest developments in the diagnosis and management
of cirrhosis and portal hypertension. Among the topics addressed
are risk stratification, prognosis, screening and surveillance,
impact of etiological and antifibrotic therapy, the gut microbiome
and cirrhosis, prevention of decompensation/further decompensation,
management of the acute bleeding episode, controversies in
pediatrics, and vascular diseases of the liver in cirrhotic and
noncirrhotic portal hypertension. The book is a compilation of
lectures and important consensus statements from the Sixth Baveno
International Consensus Workshop on Portal Hypertension, the most
recent of a series of workshops held every 5 years for
hepatologists with an interest in the field. Portal Hypertension VI
will serve as a reference book for clinical and research fellows in
Gastroenterology and Hepatology and should inspire new research
projects in the areas identified as promising by the experts of the
Baveno VI Faculty.
