Key Factors Driving the Portal Hypertension Market Growth
-
Rising Prevalence of Liver Diseases
The increasing global burden of chronic liver conditions—such as cirrhosis, hepatitis B and C infections, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD/NASH)—is a major driver of the portal hypertension market. These diseases are primary causes of elevated portal venous pressure, leading to greater demand for effective management options.
-
Advancements in Diagnostic Techniques
Innovations in non-invasive diagnostic tools, including transient elastography, Doppler ultrasound, and MRI-based assessments, have improved early detection and monitoring of portal hypertension, enhancing patient outcomes and fueling market growth.
-
Growing Adoption of Targeted Therapies
Increased focus on developing novel pharmacological agents—such as vasoactive drugs, beta-blockers, and antifibrotic therapies—has expanded treatment options and is driving market expansion.
-
Increasing Awareness and Screening Programs
Global initiatives and awareness campaigns by healthcare organizations are encouraging early diagnosis and management of liver-related disorders, indirectly supporting the demand for portal hypertension therapies.

Portal Hypertension Treatment Market
DelveInsight’s Portal Hypertension market report gives a thorough understanding of Portal Hypertension by including details such as disease definition, symptoms, causes, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment.
Portal Hypertension Overview
Portal Hypertension is an increase in the pressure within the portal vein (the vein that carries blood from the digestive organs to the liver). The increase in pressure is caused by a blockage in the blood flow through the liver. Increased pressure in the portal vein causes large veins (varices) to develop across the esophagus and stomach to get around the blockage. The varices become fragile and can bleed easily. The most common cause of Portal Hypertension is cirrhosis or scarring of the liver. Cirrhosis is known to result from the healing of a liver injury caused by hepatitis, alcohol abuse, or other causes of liver damage. In cirrhosis, the scar tissue blocks blood flow through the liver and slows its processing functions.
Portal Hypertension Diagnosis
Portal Hypertension can be diagnosed in several ways. Clinical diagnosis can be made in the setting of end-stage liver disease and in the presence of ascites and/or varices. Subclinical Portal Hypertension is much more difficult to diagnose, but low platelet levels, a large portal vein, and splenic enlargement on imaging studies are suggestive. Direct or indirect measurements of the portal vein may be accomplished using wedged hepatic vein pressure or splenic pulp pressure, but these methods are relatively invasive.
Portal Hypertension Treatment
The effects of Portal Hypertension can be managed through diet, medications, endoscopic therapy, surgery, or radiology. Once the bleeding episode has been stabilized, treatment options are prescribed based on the severity of the symptoms and on how well the patient’s liver is functioning. Management of Portal Hypertension depends on its cause, and if there are reversible causes, the clinician should attempt to correct them.
Portal Hypertension Epidemiology
The Portal Hypertension epidemiology section provides insights into the historical and current Portal Hypertension patient pool and forecasted trends for seven individual major countries. It helps recognize the causes of current and forecasted trends by exploring numerous studies and views of key opinion leaders. This part of the Portal Hypertension report also provides the diagnosed patient pool, their trends and, assumptions undertook.
Key findings from the Portal Hypertension Epidemiological Analysis
- According to the National Institute of Health, in the United States, 2,000 per 100,000 people have liver cirrhosis and that more than 90% of individuals with cirrhosis develop Portal Hypertension.
- The Portal Hypertension epidemiology covered in the report provides historical as well as forecasted Portal Hypertension epidemiology [segmented as Total Incident Cases of Portal Hypertension, Cause-specific Cases of Portal Hypertension, Gender-specific Cases of Portal Hypertension, Age-specific Cases of Portal Hypertension, and Treatable Cases of Portal Hypertension] in the 7MM covering the United States, EU4 countries (Germany, France, Italy, Spain) and the United Kingdom, and Japan from 2019 to 2032.

Portal Hypertension Market Recent Breakthroughs
- In April 2025, Galectin Therapeutics Inc. announced the initiation of a Phase 2b/3 clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of belapectin versus placebo in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) cirrhosis who exhibit clinical evidence of portal hypertension but have no esophageal varices at baseline.
Portal Hypertension Drug Analysis

Portal Hypertension Emerging Drugs
The report details the emerging Portal Hypertension therapies under the late and mid-stage of development for Portal Hypertension treatment.
-
Belapectin: Galectin Therapeutics Inc.
Galectin Therapeutics Inc. is developing Belapectin (also known as GR-MD-02), a complex carbohydrate drug that targets galectin-3, a critical protein in the pathogenesis of fatty liver disease and fibrosis. The Phase IIb NASH-CX trial of the use of belapectin in treating patients with NASH cirrhosis showed statistically significant and clinically meaningful results in reducing HVPG (hepatic venous pressure gradient) in comparison to placebo in NASH cirrhosis patients without esophageal varices, which represented 50% of the patients enrolled in the clinical trial. Belapectin could improve Portal Hypertension and potentially prevent the development of esophageal varices in NASH cirrhosis and subsequent complications
