Overview

Differential Diagnosis

Portal hypertension must be differentiated from other diseases that cause ascites, splenomegaly, hematemesis or melena, bacterial peritonitis, hydrothorax, hypoxemia, and pulmonary hypertension.
Portal hypertension must be differentiated from various diseases as in the following table.

Differentiating symptom	Diseases	Laboratory Findings				Physical Examination				History and Symptoms				Other Findings
	Diseases	Lab Test 1	Lab Test 2	Lab Test 3	Lab Test 4	Physical Finding 1	Physical Finding 2	Physical Finding 3	Physical Finding 4	Finding 1	Finding 2	Finding 3	Finding 4	Other Findings
