Abstract
We speculate on the final meaning of the alterations that characterize portal hypertensive enteropathy. The similarity of these alterations with certain morphofunctional characteristics of prenatal splanchnic development makes it possible to hypothesize that the dedifferentiation with return to early stages of development could constitute a portal hypertension induced pathogenic mechanism.
