TRANSJUGULAR INTRAHEPATIC PORTOSYSTEMIC SHUNTS

Annual Review of Medicine, 1995
▪ Abstract  Management of bleeding esophageal varices due to portal hypertension has traditionally relied on endoscopic sclerotherapy and operative intervention with placement of a portosystemic shunt. Although percutaneous decompression of portal hypertension was investigated 25 years ago, it was not clinically feasible until recently.

Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt

Seminars in Liver Disease, 1999
The Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt (TIPS) has now become an accepted part of the therapeutic armory available to the practicing clinician. It may stop variceal bleeding when traditional endoscopic techniques have failed, and can be used as secondary prevention of variceal bleeding, as well as a treatment for intractable ascites and the ...

TRANSJUGULAR INTRAHEPATIC PORTOSYSTEMIC SHUNT

Acta Radiologica, 2000
Objective: Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placement is an established therapy for portal hypertension that leads to variceal bleeding or refractory ascites. We present experiences of the role of TIPS at a liver transplantation center.

The transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS)

Clinical Radiology, 2009
The creation of an intrahepatic portosystemic shunt via a transjugular approach (TIPS) is an interventional radiological procedure used to treat the complications of portal hypertension. TIPS insertion is principally indicated to prevent or arrest variceal bleeding when medical or endoscopic treatments fail, and in the management refractory ascites ...

Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt Reductions

Seminars in Interventional Radiology, 2023
AbstractTransjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunts (TIPS) are effective in reducing the portosystemic gradient and relieving complications of portal hypertension. Despite optimal patient selection, TIPS placement can be limited due to worsening hepatic encephalopathy and liver failure. In these cases, TIPS reduction may be necessary.

Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt in an infant

Pediatric Radiology, 1997
A 15-month-old girl, who presented with biliary cirrhosis secondary to cystic fibrosis with refractory ascites and recurrent intestinal bleeding, underwent percutaneous transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunting. Immediately following the procedure the ascites disappeared and no further bleeding occurred.
