| Core Tip |
The influence of non-forward portal flow (NFPF) in cirrhosis has not been determined. The present study examined the effect of NFPF on the natural history of cirrhosis in 222 patients (median follow-up period 40.9 mo). The cumulative incidences of NFPF was as follows: 6.5% at 1 year, 14.5% at 3 years, and 23.1% at 5 years. The cumulative survival rate was significantly lower in patients with NFPF (72.2% at 1 year, 38.5% at 3 years, and 38.5% at 5 years) than in those with forward portal flow (84.0% at 1 year, 67.8% at 3 years, and 54.3% at 5 years, P = 0.0123) using Child-Pugh B and C classifications, suggesting the need for careful management of these patients. |
