Quantification of Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunting after Placement of a Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt

Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 1996
To quantify portosystemic shunting and hepatic portal perfusion after placement of a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS).Technetium-99m macroaggregated albumin (MAA) was injected directly into the portal veins of nine asymptomatic patients 3 months after TIPS placement.

Congenital feline portosystemic shunts

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1986
SUMMARY Five young cats with portosystemic communications, 2 with single intrahepatic and 3 with single extrahepatic portosystemic communications, were managed surgically. One cat with a ductus venosus was treated successfully by surgery. Ptyalism and behavioral changes were similar in all 5 cats.

CT Diagnosis of Portosystemic Shunts

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2009
CT angiography is a new method of diagnosing portal vascular anomalies using volumetric imaging. The scan speed, spatial and contrast resolution, and image display capabilities make CT an excellent tool for depicting anomalous vessels. Normal vessels, congenital intrahepatic and extrahepatic shunts, arterioportal fistulae, and multiple acquired ...

Portosystemic myelopathy: Spastic paraparesis after portosystemic shunting

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2006
Portosystemic encephalopathy (PSE) is a well-known, common complication of portal hypertension. It is thought to be caused by nitrogenous substances such as ammonia, which are normally cleared from the blood stream by the liver. In cirrhosis and other hepatic disorders with portosystemic shunting (PSS)-- either surgical portosystemic anastomoses (PSA ...

Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt

Digestive Diseases, 2005
The transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is an interventional treatment resulting in decompression of the portal system by creation of a side-to-side portosystemic anastomosis. Since its introduction 16 years ago, more than 1,000 publications have appeared demonstrating broad acceptance and increasing clinical use.

An unusual portosystemic shunt in a dog

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1987
An unusual portosystemic shunt was diagnosed in a 4-month-old male Miniature Poodle examined because of stunted growth and episodes of dementia characterized by hysteria, ataxia, and staggering. Operative splenoportography revealed a portosystemic shunt. Exploratory surgery to identify and correct the shunt was attempted.

Transjuglar Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt [PDF]

, 2003
Portal venous hypertension is a common end point of most chronic diseases of the liver. Portal hypertension can be caused less frequently by obstruction of the main portal vein by thrombus or tumor or by obstruction of hepatic venous outflow from the liver (Budd-Chiari syndrome).

Intrahepatic Congenital Portosystemic Shunts

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice
Patients with a single congenital portosystemic shunt (PSS) often fail to thrive and routinely experience episodes of hepatic encephalopathy. Although medical therapy may mitigate clinical signs, shunt attenuation improves long-term outcomes and allows for improved liver function.
