| Summary: | To study the peculiarities of the formation of pulmonary hypertension in patients with viral cirrhosis we carried out tissue Doppler echocardiography, Doppler echocardiography, duplex vascular scanning, research of respiratory function in patients with viral cirrhosis. It was found that pulmonary hypertension in patients with viral cirrhosis was a frequent complication (38 %) and is often moderate. An acceleration of blood flow and dilation of the portal and splenic veins, disturbed longitudinal systolic function of the right ventricle and its relaxation as well as decrease of the respiratory function by the restrictive type are registered in patients with pulmonary hypertension. |
