Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
There has been significant progress in the understanding of the pathophysiologic basis of common haematological problems like cytopenias, coagulopathies and thrombophilic disorders in the background of liver disease. Diagnosis has improved with newer tests like detection of JAK2 mutation and better radiological imaging. Additionally, therapeutic options have expanded with availability of drugs like activated factor VII and eltrombopeg and improved expertise in procedures like TIPSS for treatment of the Budd-Chiari syndrome. Thus, there is increasing need for coordinated management of these problems by the hematologist and gastroenterologist. This article overviews the interface between hepatology and hematology and elaborates on some of the common problems encountered. |
