Coagulopathy Post Peritoneovenous Shunt

open access: yesAnnals of Surgery, 1987
In 1942, 53% of medically treated patients with cirrhosis were dead 6 months after the onset of ascites. Only 30% survived 1 year. This dismal outlook has improved only slightly with advances in medicine. Yet, some internists reject the peritoneovenous shunt (PVS) for this fatal condition even if they are aware that a diminished blood volume causes the

Management of portal hypertension and ascites in polycystic liver disease

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 39, Issue 11, Page 2024-2033, November 2019., 2019
Abstract Patients suffering from polycystic liver disease may develop Hepatic Venous Outflow Obstruction, Portal Vein Obstruction and/or Inferior Caval Vein Syndrome because of cystic mass effect. This can cause portal hypertension, leading to ascites, variceal haemorrhage or splenomegaly.

PARPi Combining Nanoparticle LIN28B siRNA for the Management of Malignant Ascites

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
This study demonstrates that co‐inhibition of LIN28B and PARP using siLin28b/DSSP@lip‐PEG‐FA nanoparticles in combination with the PARP inhibitor BMN673 effectively suppresses the accumulation of malignant ascites associated with advanced cancers.

Peritoneovenous Shunt Occlusion

open access: yesAnnals of Surgery, 1984
Electronic pressure testing of every LeVeen valve has practically eliminated mechanical malfunction as a cause of shunt failure. Nonetheless, failures do occur and in a series of 240 cases, early or late shunt failure occurred in 29 patients. Thirty-five additional cases of failures were either referred by other physicians over a period of 6 years or ...

Clinical Outcomes and Healthcare Costs of CART Versus Paracentesis for Malignant Ascites: A Nationwide Retrospective Cohort Study in Japan

open access: yesCancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 1, January 2026.
Cell‐free and concentrated ascites reinfusion therapy had lower mortality and in‐hospital costs than paracentesis in metastatic cancer, particularly in males, patients with serum albumin ≤ 2.5 g/dL, and those with non‐gastrointestinal cancer. ABSTRACT Background Paracentesis temporarily relieves malignant ascites but causes hypoalbuminemia.

Combined Chylothorax and Chylous Ascites Complicating Liver Transplantation: A Report of a Case and Review of the Literature

open access: yesCase Reports in Transplantation, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Chyle leaks may occur as a result of surgical intervention. Chyloperitoneum, or chylous ascites after liver transplantation, is rare and the development of chylothorax after abdominal surgery is even more rare. With increasingly aggressive surgical resections, particularly in the retroperitoneum, the incidence of chyle leaks is expected to increase in ...
