Core Tip	This minireview discusses various applications of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided interventions in managing cirrhosis and its complications. We describe updates on the EUS-guided diagnosis and treatment of conditions such as portal hypertension, esophageal and gastric varices, liver biopsy, antitumoral interventions, caudate lobe ablation and sampling, and other indications of EUS-guided procedures, and compare them to the current standards of care. Additionally, we discuss the potential future uses of EUS-guided management, which is currently in its infancy, including antitumoral interventions and the application of artificial intelligence.
