The 12 pages that link to Portal hypertension, each with the reason it gives.

• CirrhosisRelated: Distorted liver tissue resists portal blood flow, raising pressure upstream.

• SchistosomiasisRelated: Liver fibrosis from chronic intestinal schistosomiasis can obstruct portal blood flow.

• AscitesRelated: Increased portal pressure drives fluid from abdominal vessels into the peritoneal cavity.

• Hepatic encephalopathyRelated: It promotes portosystemic shunting and commonly accompanies cirrhosis-related disease.

• Hepatitis CRelated: HCV-related cirrhosis can obstruct blood flow through the liver.

• HemorrhoidCompared with: It can produce rectal varices, distinct from ordinary hemorrhoids despite similar bleeding.

• Liver fibrosisRelated: Fibrotic distortion increases resistance to portal blood flow and can raise portal pressure.

• Primary biliary cholangitisRelated: Advanced fibrosis or cirrhosis can obstruct portal flow and lead to varices or ascites.

• Hepatitis DRelated: HDV-related cirrhosis can obstruct portal blood flow and produce this complication.

• Biliary atresiaRelated: Progressive liver scarring can obstruct portal blood flow and produce this complication.

• Budd–Chiari syndromeRelated: Impaired hepatic drainage raises resistance and can transmit pressure into portal circulation.

• Caroli diseaseRelated: Congenital hepatic fibrosis can cause portal hypertension in Caroli syndrome.
