Abstract
Budd-Chiari syndrome (B-CS) is a complicated hepatic vascular disease caused by hepatic venous outflow obstruction.There are significant differences in the pathogenesis and treatment of B-CS between China and Western countries.Given the characteristics of B-CS in our country,Budd-Chiari Syndrome and Hepatic Vascular Diseases Professional Committee of Chinese Research Hospital Association organizes domestic experts in this field to formulate the “Chinese multidisciplinary collaborative expert consensus for the diagnosis and treatment of Budd-Chiari syndrome(2021 version)”.This consensus elaborates the research status of epidemiology,pathogenesis,disease classification,clinical manifestations,diagnosis and treatment of B-CS in China.Conducting basic research on pathogenesis and clinical research with high level evidence are important work direction in the future.This consensus is expected to provide guidance for clinicians to make optimal therapeutic schedules,so as to further standardize and improve the comprehensive diagnosis and treatment and basic research level of B-CS in China.
