| Core Tip |
This review provides an up-to-date summary of published studies and case reports on the utilization of endoscopic ultrasound in patients with advanced liver disease and portal hypertension. We highlight the significance of portal hypertension and the potential application of endoscopic ultrasound, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided fine needle aspiration, and EUS-guided injection in the management of portal hypertension. In addition, we highlight the utilization of EUS in the diagnosis and management of gastroesophageal varices. This review also provides insights on the limitation of endoscopic ultrasound in patients with portal hypertension. |
