Core Tip	Moderate-to-severe portopulmonary hypertension (PPHTN) implies an extremely poor prognosis and patients are generally excluded from liver transplantation. Recently, some pulmonary vasoactive drugs have become routine in the treatment of patients with idiopathic pulmonary hypertension and have been recently introduced in the treatment of patients with PPHTN. Recent studies seem to demonstrate that treatment with pulmonary vasoactive drugs could allow liver transplantation with acceptable surgical risks and excellent survival. This paper reports a review on management of PPHTN.
