  • Hepatic vascular malformations are a group of congenital or acquired disorders characterized by structural abnormalities of the intrahepatic arterial, venous, or portal venous systems, with the clinical manifestations of hyperdynamic circulation, portal hypertension, and complications of portosystemic shunting. Due to the low incidence rate and nonspecific clinical manifestations of such disorders, they are easily confused with cirrhotic portal hypertension, leading to the delay in diagnosis and treatment. This article introduces the common clinical manifestations and differential diagnosis of hepatic vascular malformations and elaborates on three typical types of hepatic vascular malformations, in order to provide ideas and references for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
