TRANSJUGULAR INTRAHEPATIC PORTASYSTEMIC STENT SHUNT [PDF]

open access: yesMedical 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.

Arterio-Biliary Fistula as a Rare Life-Threatening Complication of Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt: A Case Report

open access: yes대한영상의학회지, 2022
A 46-year-old male with alcoholic liver cirrhosis underwent a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) for refractory ascites. On the 9th day after the procedure, he presented with melena and decreasing hemoglobin levels.

The effects and safety of anticoagulation or antiplatelet therapy following TIPS in cirrhotic patients with portal hypertension: A meta-analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Introduction: Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is an effective way to improve portal hypertension, however, the role of anticoagulation or antiplatelet therapy following TIPS remains controversial.

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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

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

open access: yesArchives 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 ...

Development of pseudointima and stenosis after transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic shunts: Characterization of cell phenotype and function [PDF]

open access: yesHepatology, 1998
The clinical utility of transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic shunts (TIPS) is frequently complicated by the ingrowth of tissue into the stent lumen, causing stent stenosis. These studies were undertaken to define the cellular and matrix components of the pseudointima, define the phenotype and function of the mesenchymal ...

Endothelial Cells Lining Transjugular Intrahepatic Portasystemic Shunts Originate in Hepatic Sinusoids: Implications for Pseudointimal Hyperplasia [PDF]

open access: yesHepatology, 1999
The phenotype of the endothelial cells (ECs) in the pseudointima of transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic shunts (TIPS) and the mechanisms of pseudointima formation after TIPS were unknown. We hypothesized that TIPS were lined by hepatic sinusoidal ECs, which stimulated the migration of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) into the ...

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

open access: yesJournal 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.
