Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt: A Literature Review

open access: yes, 2017
Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt, or TIPS, is a procedure used to decompress the portal system resulting from portal hypertension. The technique was inadvertently discovered during a transjugular cholangiography procedure around 1969 ...

Echocardiography‐Assisted Stenting of the Ductus Venosus in Infracardiac TAPVC: Report of a New Technique and Review of the Literature

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 108, Issue 1, Page 214-220, July 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Neonates with infracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) frequently require urgent treatment. If surgical repair is contraindicated due to extreme prematurity, interventional stenting of the ductus venosus (DV) has been introduced successfully to postpone surgery.

Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt

open access: yesGastrointestinal Endoscopy, 1993
The transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is a relatively new method of creating a portosystemic shunt using a needle, angioplasty balloon catheters and expandable metallic stents. During a 6-month period, the authors have performed TIPS, using the spiral Z-stent--another modification of the Gianturco-Rósch stent--in 13 patients with ...

Sarcopenia Is Associated With Mortality and Progression of Cirrhosis in Decompensated but Not Compensated Disease—A Multicentre Study

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 64, Issue 1, Page 36-49, July 2026.
In a retrospective cohort of 1,624 adults with cirrhosis, sarcopenia was independently associated with unplanned hospitalization, death, and cirrhosis progression (or death) in patients with decompensated disease. In compensated cirrhosis, sarcopenia was associated only with a higher risk of unplanned hospitalization.

Pre‐TIPS Liver and Spleen Volumetry Are Not Associated With Liver‐Related Outcomes After TIPS Placement for Refractory Ascites

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 46, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background & Aims Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) improves survival in refractory ascites. A careful patient's selection is mandatory as TIPS can lead to complications. Liver volumetry is predictive of outcomes before hepatic surgery, but data on its role before TIPS placement are scarce. We aimed to evaluate whether liver

Sarcopenia Predicts Mortality and Hepatic Encephalopathy After TIPS in Older Adults With Cirrhosis and Improves Prognostic Scores

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 46, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims The role of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) in older adults remains controversial because of limited risk‐stratification tools. We aimed to assess whether sarcopenia and myosteatosis are independently associated with post‐TIPS mortality and overt hepatic encephalopathy (OHE) in patients aged ≥ 70 years,

Shunt dysfunction and mortality after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) in patients with portal hypertension

open access: yesInsights into Imaging
Objectives Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is a catheter-based, minimally invasive procedure to reduce portal hypertension. The aim of the study was to investigate dysfunction and mortality after TIPS and to identify factors ...
