[Transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic stent shunt (TIPSS). Technique of implantation].

Der Radiologe, 1994
Implantation of a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic stent shunt (TIPSS) is guided by ultrasound and fluoroscopy. Today this stent is clinically established as a concept of "minimal invasive therapy" to treat recurrent variceal bleeding in patients with portal hypertension.

[Transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic stent shunt (TIPSS). Results and complications].

Der Radiologe, 1994
Use of a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic stent shunt (TIPSS) is a highly efficient method of controlling bleeding from esophageal or gastric varices in patients with portal hypertension. Early mortality is between 2% and 13%. Stenosis and occlusion of the stent are reported in 6-56% and 7-9%, respectively, within the first year.

[Transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic stent shunt (TIPSS). Indications and postoperative management].

Der Radiologe, 1994
Complications of portal hypertension, e.g. bleeding from esophageal or gastric varices or ascites, can be efficiently treated by transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic stent shunting. The most important and most frequently encountered contra-indications to this procedure are malignant liver tumors, systemic infections or hepatic decompensation, and ...

Effects of transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic shunt (TIPS) on splanchnic and systemic hemodynamics, and hepatic function in patients with portal hypertension

Digestive Diseases and Sciences, 1995
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the short-term splanchnic and systemic hemodynamics and hepatic function after TIPS creation. Fifteen cirrhotics with portal hypertension underwent TIPS placement for treatment of variceal hemorrhage, and extensive hemodynamic studies including right heart catheterization, portal pressure measurement, hepatic ...

[Initial clinical experiences with TIPS (transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic stent-shunt)].

Leber, Magen, Darm, 1996
15 patients with predominantly alcoholtoxic liver cirrhosis (mean age 50 years; 8 men and 7 women) were treated by the technically successful implantation of a transjugular portosystemic stent-shunt (TIPS) within a period of 1 year. The indications for TIPS implantation were the following: gastroesophageal bleedings in 12 cases (10 patients with ...

[Transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic shunt (TIPS)--indications and outcome].

Zeitschrift fur Gastroenterologie, 1997
The use of the use of the transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) and its indication for treatment of the various symptoms of portal hypertension is till under debate. This paper presents guidelines for its application based on randomized studies, case reports, and own experience. TIPS is indicated in acute variceal bleeding not responding

[Treatment of hemorrhages by rupture of cardio-tuberous varices with transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic shunt].

Gastroenterologie clinique et biologique, 1993
Twelve consecutive patients admitted for bleeding from ruptured gastric varices were treated with transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunts and followed for a mean of 6 +/- 3 months (range: 8-293 days). The shunt was performed successfully in all 12 patients.

[Doppler sonographic short- and long-term studies of portal hemodynamics following transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic shunt (TIPSS)].

Zeitschrift fur Gastroenterologie, 1998
Shunt insufficiency due to shunt occlusion or stenosis is frequent after TIPS (about 50% after one year). Controversially discussed is whether Doppler sonography is effective in detecting shunt stenosis or whether regular angiographies are required.

[CT-angiography as a non-invasive method for the evaluation of the patency of TIPSS (transjugular intrahepatic portasystemic shunt)].

Der Radiologe, 1999
To evaluate the feasibility of determining patency of the transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPSS) by non-invasive CT angiography (CTA).(1) Non-enhanced scanning of the shunt. (2) Bolus tracking by injecting 20 ml of non-ionic contrast material through a cubital vein access to determine the time to maximal shunt enhancement.
