The Use of Rifaximin in the Prevention of Overt Hepatic Encephalopathy After Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt

Annals of Internal Medicine, 2021
BACKGROUND The efficacy of rifaximin in the secondary prevention of overt hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is well documented, but its effectiveness in preventing a first episode in patients after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) has not ...

A Prospective Study Identifying Predictive Factors of Cardiac Decompensation After Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt: The Toulouse Algorithm

Hepatology, 2019
Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is now a standard for the treatment of portal hypertension–related complications. After the TIPS procedure, incidence and risk factors of cardiac decompensation are poorly known.

PERCUTANEOUS TRANSJUGULAR PORTOSYSTEMIC SHUNT

Southern Medical Journal, 1991
--To determine the effectiveness of the Palmaz balloon expandable stent for the creation of a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt. The device is designed to achieve portal decompression in patients with variceal hemorrhage secondary to portal hypertension.--Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunting was performed in eight patients ...

Congenital extrahepatic portosystemic shunts

Pediatric Radiology, 2003
A congenital extrahepatic portosystemic shunt (CEPS) is uncommon. A type 1 CEPS exists where there is absence of intrahepatic portal venous supply and a type 2 CEPS where this supply is preserved. The diagnosis of congenital portosystemic shunt is important because it may cause hepatic encephalopathy.To describe the clinical and imaging features of ...

Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt

Seminars in Liver Disease, 1999
The Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt (TIPS) has now become an accepted part of the therapeutic armory available to the practicing clinician. It may stop variceal bleeding when traditional endoscopic techniques have failed, and can be used as secondary prevention of variceal bleeding, as well as a treatment for intractable ascites and the ...

Diagnostic value of blood variables following attenuation of congenital extrahepatic portosystemic shunt in dogs

The Veterinary Record, 2019
Background The aims of this study were to determine if extrahepatic portosystemic shunt (EHPSS) postoperative closure could be predicted based on preoperative blood analyses and to determine the accuracy of blood variables to evaluate persistence of ...

Portosystemic Shunts

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1985
The veterinary profession's experience with portosystemic shunts has resulted in continued description and refinement of the clinical entity. Specific and sensitive diagnostic procedures are now available and can be utilized in a clinical setting. Furthermore, portosystemic shunts can be treated successfully owing to the ability to make a quicker ...

Nonthrombogenic Extracorporeal Portosystemic Shunt

Archives of Surgery, 1970
In spite of ideal present day management, 25% of patients who bleed from esophageal varices continue to succumb to hemorrhage. Those who fail to respond to conservative measures require surgical intervention. Major surgery on a patient already taxed by exsanguinating hemorrhage and hepatic decompensation is accompanied by a high mortality. White et al,
