Intrahepatic portosystemic venous shunt. [PDF]

American Journal of Roentgenology, 1990
Among numerous variations of communications between the portal and systemic venous circulations, intrahepatic shunts between portal and systemic veins have seldom been described [1 , 2]. Recently we encountered an intrahepatic portosystemic venous shunt directly connecting the right portal vein to the inferior portion of the vena cava.

Effects of Shunt Position on the Prognosis of Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt in Patients With Cirrhotic Esophagogastric Variceal Bleeding

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
The challenge of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) remains the puncture of the portal vein. Establishing an optimal shunt position in the left branch of the portal vein would be a better option for reducing the risk of postoperative hepatic encephalopathy and stent dysfunction.

Transportal Technetium-99m Labeled Macroaggregated Albumin Scintigraphy to Quantify Occult Intrahepatic Microvascular Portosystemic Shunting

Radiology Case Reports, 2021
Nodular regenerative hyperplasia (NRH) of the liver may lead to noncirrhotic portal hypertension with subsequent development of portosystemic shunts. While extrahepatic and macrovascular shunts are readily visualized with imaging or endoscopy, there is ...

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2019
Background The term hepatopulmonary syndrome typically applies to cyanosis that results from “intrapulmonary vascular dilatation” due to advanced liver disease. Similar findings may result from a congenital portosystemic shunt without liver disease.

Refining Prognosis in Cirrhosis Patients With Ascites: Impact of Acute vs. Non‐Acute Decompensation

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The novel classification of acute and non‐acute decompensation provides prognostic information, but the role of hospitalisation status should be reconsidered. ABSTRACT Background A more granular understanding of hepatic decompensation in cirrhosis has led to the classification of acute decompensation (AD) and non‐acute decompensation (NAD).
