2Portal hypertension is defined by a portal pressure higher than
- A5 mm Hg
- B10 mm Hg
- C15 mm Hg
- D20 mm Hg
- E25 mm Hg
3Which collateral network is clinically the most important when we discuss development of portosystemic collateralization due to portal hypertension?
- Athe recanalized umbilical vein from the left portal vein to the epigastric venous system (caput medusae)
- Bretroperitoneal collateral vessels
- Ccollateral network through the coronary and short gastric veins to the azygos vein
- Dthe hemorrhoidal venous plexus
- Ethe anatomic and physiologic (e.g. capillarization of hepatic sinusoids) intrahepatic shunts
4Which of these conditions accounts for approximately 50% of cases of portal hypertension in children?
- APortal vein thrombosis
- BSchistosomiasis
- CAlcoholic cirrhosis
- DBudd-Chiari syndrome
- EConstrictive pericarditis
5Alcohol cirrhosis, the most common cause of portal hypertension, usually causes increased resistance to portal flow at
- Athe presinusoidal and sinusoidal levels
- Bthe sinusoidal and postsinusoidal levels
- Conly the presinusoidal level
- Donly the postsinusoidal level
- Eall three levels
6Which of these conditions can cause posthepatic portal hypertension?
- Aportal vein thrombosis
- Balcoholic cirrhosis
- Cschistosomiasis
- Dheart failure
- Enone of the above
7What is the most serious and life-threatening complication of portal hypertension?
- Aascites
- Bhepatic encephalopathy
- Cgastrointestinal bleeding
- Dthrombocytopenia
- Eanemia
8A patient with liver cirrhosis and diagnosed esophageal varices is admitted to the hospital with low haemoglobin level and hematemesis. You already ensured adequate access (two large-bore intravenous lines), fluid infusion, type and crossmatch of blood, and judicious blood and products transfusion. How do you proceed?
- Aprepare the patient for operation - total or selective shunt
- Bprepare the patient for liver transplantation
- Cprepare the patient for TIPS (transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt)
- Dprepare the patient for endoscopic treatment (e.q., sclerosis or ligation)
- Eperform a balloon tamponade with Sengstaken-Blakemore tube
9Which is the most frequent complication in patients with portal hypertension who underwent non-selective shunt operation?
- Aleukopenia
- Bthrombocytopenia
- Cascites
- Drebleeding from esophageal varices
- Epostoperative encephalopathy
10Which is the most frequently used selective shunt?
- Aleft gastric-venacaval shunt
- Bthe distal splenorenal shunt
- Cthe end-to-side portacaval shunt
- Dside-to-side portacaval shunt
- Enone of the above
11In addition to endoscopic treatment in cases of bleeding from esophageal varices we can add pharmacotherapy for better results. What medications do we use?
- Asomatostatin
- Bvasopressin
- Cantibiotics
- Dbeta-blockers
- Eall of the above
