V 1.0. 29/Jan/2021

Left-sided portal hypertension (LSPH), also known as sinistral or segmental hypertension, is a localized form of portal hypertension (PH) that usually occurs as a result of splenic vein thrombosis (SVT) (1,2). It represents less than 5% of all cases of PH, distinguished from other forms by preserved liver function and patent extrahepatic portal vein (3).

Aims

The aim of our study is to assess the real incidence of GIB secondary to LSPH in BR and LAPC and to review the best therapeutic approach. Furthermore, we would like to identify risk factors in these patients to develop SVT and LSPH and whether the prognosis of these patients is influenced by the presence of LSPH.
