Spontaneous inferior mesenteric arteriovenous fistula as a cause of severe portal hypertension and cardiomyopathy

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2019
Inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) and inferior mesenteric vein (IMV) fistulas or malformations are extremely rare, with only 36 cases reported. Low incidence and nonspecific clinical signs and symptoms make mesenteric arteriovenous fistulas difficult to ...

Verification of thrombus formation just after endoscopic injection sclerotherapy with ligation for esophagogastric varices by venous phase of left gastric arteriography

Radiology Case Reports, 2022
Management of hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) is important in the treatment of portal hypertension. We report a case that was treated by a hybrid procedure combining endoscopic injection sclerotherapy with ligation (EISL), left gastric artery ...

Recent Advances in Functional Liver Volumetry: Emphasis on 99mTc‐GSA SPECT/CT Fusion Imaging

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Functional liver volumetry enables more accurate assessment of the future liver remnant by integrating anatomical and functional information, improving risk stratification before major hepatectomy. Among available techniques, 99mTc‐GSA SPECT/CT fusion imaging enables precise regional functional assessment and more reliable prediction of post ...

Recombinant Human Thrombopoietin Reduces the Need for Platelet Transfusion in Patients With Chronic Liver Disease and Thrombocytopenia

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronic liver disease (CLD)‐related thrombocytopenia can limit the feasibility of invasive procedures. Recombinant human thrombopoietin (rhTPO) has demonstrated a favorable safety profile without hepatotoxicity. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of rhTPO in patients with CLD‐related thrombocytopenia who were undergoing elective invasive ...

The Clinicopathological Characteristics and Prognosis of Cholangiolocarcinoma: A Multicenter Study With a Central Pathology Review

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cholangiolocarcinoma (CLC) is a rare liver cancer with ≥ 80% ductular configuration (DC). Given its rarity, its clinicopathological characteristics remain poorly understood, and its status as a distinct disease entity remains controversial.
