Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt: A Medical Perspective
Digestive Diseases, 1995The transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is an exciting new addition to the therapeutic armamentarium against portal hypertension. It is currently indicated for salvage of patients with active variceal hemorrhage despite sclerotherapy or where sclerotherapy is not feasible.

The Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2023
AbstractHydrocephalus is a disorder caused by excess fluid accumulation in the brain and results in brain damage with consequent cognitive and physical problems. This condition has no cure; the only treatment is brain surgery. Experimental data indicate that P‐glycoprotein (P‐gp) plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of hydrocephalus due to its ...

Medical management of congenital portosystemic shunts in 27 dogs—a retrospective study
Journal of Small Animal Practice, 1998Case records of 27 dogs with medically managed congenital portosystemic shunts were reviewed. Fourteen were followed up by telephone questionnaires to the owners. Age, breed, sex, clinical signs and blood results were similar to previous studies. Weight and quality of life were stable or improved on treatment in all cases.
