ABSTRACT
Globally, the population living with liver cirrhosis is growing. There is the largest number of cirrhosis patients in China throughout the world. Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a clinical syndrome of sudden hepatic decompensations such as variceal bleeding, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, hepatic encephalopathy and hepatorenal syndrome seen in patients with liver cirrhosis. ACLF leads to poor quality of life and high mortality. Portal hypertension is not only a consequence of the development of cirrhosis, but also a secondary or even superimposed attack to the development of cirrhosis. It is necessary to early reduce intrahepatic resistance by transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt and drugs to improve the prognosis.
