Abstract

Introduction: To date few evidences are available on the risk of hepatic decompensation (HD) related to portal hypertension (PH) after therapy with new direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) in patients with HCV-related advanced chronic liver disease (ACLD). Furthermore, the predictive role of liver (LSM) and spleen (SSM) stiffness measurement after DAA therapy is still debated. We previously reported that SSM 54 kPa was able to predict HD in untreated HCV patients.
