TRANSJUGULAR INTRAHEPATIC PORTASYSTEMIC STENT SHUNT [PDF]

Medical Journal Armed Forces India, 1995
Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic stent shunt (TIPSS) is a new non-surgical method of creating a portasystemic communication [1]. It is yet another innovative technique for the prevention of bleeding from oesophageal varices in patients of portal hypertension.

Transjugular Intrahepatic Portasystemic Shunt vs Surgical Shunt in Good-Risk Cirrhotic Patients [PDF]

Archives of Surgery, 2001
In good-risk patients with variceal bleeding undergoing portal decompression, surgical shunt is more effective, more durable, and less costly than angiographic shunt (transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic shunt [TIPS]).Retrospective case-control study.Academic referral center for liver disease.Patients with Child-Pugh class A or B cirrhosis with at ...

Successful treatment of recurrent hepatic encephalopathy with revision of transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic shunt and embolisation of splenorenal shunt

BMJ Case Reports, 2021
We present a case of 64-year-old US veteran who developed recurrent hepatic encephalopathy (HE) following transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic shunt (TIPSS) procedure. The patient had a history of metabolic syndrome and cirrhosis due to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis.

Transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic stent—shunt in the treatment of variceal haemorrhage

Journal of British Surgery, 1995
Abstract The transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic stent-shunt (TIPSS) is a side-to-side portocaval shunt, performed by interventional radiological methods, linking the hepatic and portal veins through the liver parenchyma with an expandable metal stent. The technique can be performed successfully in over 90 per cent of patients.

Outcomes of surgical shunts and transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic stent shunts for complicated portal hypertension

British Journal of Surgery, 2017
Abstract Background Transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic stent shunt (TIPSS), instead of surgical shunt, has become the standard treatment for patients with complicated portal hypertension. This study compared outcomes in patients who underwent TIPSS or surgical shunting for complicated portal ...

Transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic stent shunting for control of acute and recurrent upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage related to portal hypertension. [PDF]

Gut, 1993
The insertion of a transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic stent shunt (TIPSS) was evaluated in 22 patients with recurrent upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage related to portal hypertension (bleeding from oesophageal varices 10, gastric varices six, portal hypertensive gastropathy six).

Differential Effects on Portal and Effective Hepatic Blood Flow

Annals of Surgery, 1997
This study was undertaken to determine the effects of transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic shunt (TIPS) and small-diameter prosthetic H-graft portacaval shunt (HGPCS) on portal and effective hepatic blood flow.Mortality after TIPS is higher than after HGPCS for bleeding varices.

Emergency transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic stent shunting as salvage treatment for uncontrolled variceal bleeding

Journal of British Surgery, 1994
Abstract Creation of a transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic stent shunt (TIPSS) was used as a rescue treatment for patients with variceal bleeding refractory to standard medical and endoscopic treatment. Over a 2-year period 242 episodes of variceal bleeding were treated and emergency shunting was performed on 20 patients with ...

A Prospective Trial of Transjugular Intrahepatic Portasystemic Stent Shunts Versus Small-Diameter Prosthetic H-Graft Portacaval Shunts in the Treatment of Bleeding Varices

Annals of Surgery, 1996
The authors compare transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic stent shunts (TIPS) to small-diameter prosthetic H-graft portacaval shunts (HGPCS).Transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic stent shunts have been embraced as a first-line therapy in the treatment of bleeding varices due to portal hypertension, although they have not been compared to ...

Surgical Shunting versus Transjugular Intrahepatic Portasystemic Shunting for Bleeding Varices Resulting from Portal Hypertension and Cirrhosis: A Meta-Analysis

The American Surgeon™, 2010
Surgical shunting was the mainstay in treating portal hypertension for years. Recently, trans-jugular intrahepatic portasystemic shunting (TIPS) has replaced surgical shunting, first as a “bridge” to transplantation and ultimately as first-line therapy for bleeding varices.
