Host: Peter Buch, MD, FACG, AGAF, FACP Guest: Shilpa Junna, MD Symptoms of portal vein thrombosis (PVT) are primarily driven by the extent of the obstruction that the PVT is causing, and some of it's also driven by how quickly the thrombosis has developed. There's also some cases where symptoms can be nonspecific. So the role of a multidisciplinary team in helping to address this condition is very important because every case is unique. This collaboration can help provide the best care to our patients case by case. Dive in with Dr. Peter Buch and Dr. Shilpa Junna, Transplant Hepatologist and Assistant Professor at the Cleveland Clinic, to learn more.

Host: Peter Buch, MD, FACG, AGAF, FACP Guest: Paul Feuerstadt MD, FACG, AGAF C. difficile is a major problem in the United States.
