50 Anticoagulation in Patients with Cirrhosis Recanalization of thrombosed portal vein Preventing PVT in high risk patients Preventing decompensation

51 Anticoagulation for PVT recanalization 200 patients reported Various anticoagulation protocols Partial occlusion in 80-88% of patients Recanalization 60-80% (3-12 months).

55 Cirrhotic portal vein thrombosis 1.PVT is related to cirrhosis-associated prothrombotic state, to underlying thrombophilia, and to blood stasis. 2.PVT is caused by advanced liver disease. In turn, occlusive PVT aggravates liver disease. 3.The benefit of anticoagulation could be much broader than the prevention of PVT. Further studies needed. 4.Bleeding on anticoagulation apparently not a problem. Further studies needed.
