However, there are still some complications that have a high incidence, but are overlooked by clinicians. These complications will also significantly affect the patient's quality of life and long-term prognosis. In this paper, the overlooked complications of liver cirrhosis, such as portal vein thrombosis, cirrhotic sarcopenia, and hepatic osteopathy and so on, are discussed, and the future research direction and work focus are prospected, in order to attract the attention of clinicians and researchers.
