NCT ID: NCT05719857 Not yet recruiting - Portal Hypertension Clinical Trials

Hepatic Venous Pressure Gradient and Elastography in Porto-sinusoidal Vascular Disorder

Start date: March 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Porto-sinusoidal vascular disorder (PSVD) is considered a rare cause of portal hypertension (PH), resulting from specific histological alterations that essentially affect the small portal branches and sinusoids, in the absence of cirrhosis. In recent years, the recognition and importance of PSVD has increased, notably due to the widespread use of transient elastography (TE). However, the definitive diagnosis of PSVD can only be established through liver biopsy. Recent data show that PSVD should be suspected in patients with PH and TE ≤ 20 kPa and liver biopsy should be considered in this context. The investigators hypothesize that hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) and magnetic resonance liver elastography (MRE) may help in the selection of liver biopsy candidates for the diagnosis of PSVD. The primary objective of the study is to describe HVPG and MRE values and liver biopsy findings in patients with PH and TE ≤ 20 kPa. The search for serum markers that can distinguish these patients from those with cirrhotic portal hypertension without the need for liver biopsy will also be the object of this study. 50 patients will be included, prospectively and retrospectively, in a comparative study between diagnostic methods, with a cross-sectional design.

NCT ID: NCT03717792 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Vascular Disorder of Liver

Vascular Liver Disease Evaluation, Follow Up and Non-Invasive Diagnostics Program

VALID
Start date: January 1, 2010
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Background Vascular liver disorders (VALDI) are rare diseases, for which knowledge on risk factors, appropriate methods of diagnosis, effect of therapy and prognosis still need to be improved. Aim of the study This project aims to study risk factors, methods of detection, therapy and prognosis in order to elaborate and disseminate updated recommendations for the optimal management of patients with VALDI. Design of the study Data on patients will be collected from baseline (the date of diagnosis) up to 3 years. During this period, data on clinical condition, laboratory results, diagnostic tests, interventions and outcome will be collected anonymously using standardised review of medical charts by one special trained investigator. Only patients with VALDI are eligible to participate.
