Key Words Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt; Liver cirrhosis; Variceal bleeding; Nonselective beta-blockers; Portal hypertension
Core Tip The management of portal hypertension in decompensated cirrhosis often involves nonselective beta-blockers (NSBBs) and a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS). Although NSBBs effectively reduce portal pressure and prevent variceal bleeding, they can cause significant side effects, negatively impacting adherence. Conversely, TIPS provides rapid relief from variceal bleeding but carries risks such as hepatic encephalopathy and other complications. However, both treatments require careful patient selection and monitoring. Future strategies should focus on optimising patient management, enhancing procedural techniques, and integrating personalised approaches to improve outcomes in patients with cirrhosis.
