ABSTRACT
Although portal hypertensive enteropathy (PHE) is similar to portal hypertensive gastroenteropathy, it has various endoscopic manifestations with a lack of specificity, and there are still no unified diagnostic criteria. It is easily ignored by clinicians due to great individual differences and the absence of symptoms for quite a long period of time. Based on the patients' conditions and local expert experience, the treatment methods include symptomatic supportive treatment, pharmacotherapy, endoscopic therapy, radioactive intervention therapy, and surgical interventions. Although there have been reports on the endoscopic manifestations and treatment of PHE in recent years, the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of this disease should be taken seriously by clinicians.
