Retour sur le Paris PSVD Meeting !

The Paris PSVD Meeting brought together the international PSVD community for two days of high-level scientific exchange and collaboration.
Le Paris PSVD Meeting a réuni la communauté internationale de la PSVD pour deux journées d’échanges scientifiques et de collaboration.
The Paris PSVD Meeting was the first international scientific meeting dedicated to Porto-Sinusoidal Vascular Disease (PSVD) and aimed at healthcare professionals.
Organised by EURO-VALDI-NET and the FILFOIE network, this exceptional two-day conference took place at the Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers (CNAM) in Paris on December 4–5, 2025.
The conference gathered international experts to discuss key aspects of PSVD, including pathophysiology, diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic management, offering a comprehensive and multidisciplinary perspective on this rare vascular liver disease.
It featured more than 20 speakers and welcomed more than 100 on-site participants, with over 300 additional attendees joining remotely.
The organisers warmly thank COST Action, ERN RARE-Liver, SNFGE and AFEF for their support, as well as EASL, BAVENO, ALEP, AASLD and AEEH for their valuable contribution to the meeting.
The replays of the sessions are now available, and all presentations can be accessed below.
