The good news is that early diagnosis and appropriate treatment can help manage the condition and reduce the risk of life-threatening complications. Depending on the severity, treatment may include lifestyle changes, medications, or advanced image-guided procedures such as the TIPS (Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt) procedure for selected patients.
