The aim of the current study is to determine the potential efficacy of liver transplantation in the form of patients' overall survival (OS) after neoadjuvant systemic therapy in patients with biologically responsive locally advanced non-metastatic intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) in comparison to patients historically treated with chemotherapy alone.
The purpose of this study is to study the effects of a structured Mediterranean dietary program on prevention of weight gain, promotion of heart health and prevention of fatty liver disease after liver transplantation.
Chronic hepatic disease, and especially cirrhosis, are associated to a global dysfunction of the immune system. Liver transplantation represents the only replacement therapy for end-stage liver disease and a curative means of localized hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) but required immunosuppressive treatment to limit the risk of rejection. Candidates for liver transplantation …
Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is a critical therapeutic approach for managing esophagogastric variceal bleeding and refractory ascites in decompensated cirrhosis patients. To date, hepatic encephalopathy (HE) remains one of the most common complications following TIPS procedures, and prediction and prevention of post-TIPS HE have always been a hotspot in …
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate changes in selected biomarkers and their potential connection with early radiological outcomes in adult patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who are candidates for Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE) treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are whether specific biomarkers change in response …
Aim: To use magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans without contrast to help improve diagnosis of liver cancer in people who are at increased risk of developing liver cancer. Background: People with any condition that affects the liver over a long period of time can develop cirrhosis. Conditions and risk factors …

Comparison of abdominal US exam in patients with viral hepatitis between ultraportable US with teleradiology capacities (TUP) versus conventional ultrasound (CUS)
This multicentre, prospective cohort study aims to enrol 375 patients with cirrhosis who meet the following criteria: effective management or elimination of the primary aetiological factor (i.e., sustained virological response in chronic hepatitis C, complete viral suppression in chronic hepatitis B, or long-term alcohol abstinence in alcohol-related liver disease), liver …
The goal of this interventional trial is to compare in measuring of portal hypertension by HVPG and EUS-PPG in subject indicated to HVPG measurement. The primary question is whether EUS-PPG provides measurements really equivalent to HVPG in terms of gradient accuracy. Participants undergoing HVPG will first undergo the procedure while …
