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.

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

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).
