Scintigraphic Diagnosis of Portosystemic Shunts
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2009Portal scintigraphy is a quick noninvasive method to the diagnosis of portosystemic shunts in dogs and cats. Scintigraphic procedures have evolved over the past 25 years. Currently, trans-splenic portal scintigraphy is the preferred method. High quality studies can be obtained with small radiopharmaceutical doses.

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.

The Sonographic Search for Portosystemic Shunts
Clinical Techniques in Small Animal Practice, 2007The diagnostic investigation of portosystemic shunts (PSS) has evolved over the last few decades, helping to understand and identify these vascular anomalies that affect many dogs and cats. Ultrasonography has become an important tool in small animals and high-resolution systems are now widely available.

Congenital feline portosystemic shunts
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1986SUMMARY 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, 2009CT 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, 2006Portosystemic 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 ...

An unusual portosystemic shunt in a dog
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1987An 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.

Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt
Digestive Diseases, 2005The 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.

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).
