Abernethy malformation: A comprehensive review

Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, 2022
Abernethy malformation is a rare condition in which portomesenteric blood bypasses the liver and drains into the systemic vein through a partial or complete shunt. It is categorised into two types on the basis of the shunt pattern between the portal vein

Congenital portosystemic venous shunt

European Journal of Pediatrics, 2017
Congenital portosystemic venous shunts are rare developmental anomalies resulting in diversion of portal flow to the systemic circulation and have been divided into extra- and intrahepatic shunts.

Livedo Racemosa – The Pathophysiology of Decompression-Associated Cutis Marmorata and Right/Left Shunt

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
Decompression sickness and arterial gas embolism, collectively known as decompression illness (DCI), are serious medical conditions that can result from compressed gas diving. DCI can present with a wide range of physiologic and neurologic symptoms.

Can the Treatment of Normal-Pressure Hydrocephalus Induce Normal-Tension Glaucoma? A Narrative Review of a Current Knowledge

Medicina, 2021
Ventriculoperitoneal shunt placement is the most commonly used treatment of normal-pressure hydrocephalus (NPH). It has been hypothesized that normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) is caused by the treatment of NPH by using the shunt to reduce intracranial ...

Application of shunting inhibitory artificial neural networks to medical diagnosis

The Seventh Australian and New Zealand Intelligent Information Systems Conference, 2001, 2001
Shunting inhibitory artificial neural networks (SIANNs) are biologically inspired networks in which the neurons interact among each other via a nonlinear mechanism called shunting inhibition. Since they are high-order networks, SIANNs are capable of producing complex, nonlinear decision boundaries.

Ventriculoperitoneal shunt infection and malfunction in adult patients: incidence, risk factors, and long-term follow-up of single institution experience

Neurosurgical review
Ventriculoperitoneal shunt surgery was developed to manage excessive cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the brain’s ventricles and is considered a mainstream treatment. Despite the development of the shunt device system, various complications still occur.
