Contemporary Diagnostic Radiology, 2022
Chronic liver disease is the 11th leading cause of mortality in the United States.1 Portal hypertension is a common endpoint for progressive liver disease, and can clinically manifest as refractory ascites, splenomegaly, and life-threatening esophageal and gastric variceal bleeding.

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 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

Digestive Diseases, 2005
The transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is an interventional treatment resulting in decompression of the portal system by creation of a side-to-side portosystemic anastomosis. Since its introduction 16 years ago, more than 1,000 publications have appeared demonstrating broad acceptance and increasing clinical use.

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.

Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt (TIPS)

Gastroenterology Nursing, 1998
A transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is a recently developed radiologic technique that is useful in the treatment of complications of portal hypertension, variceal bleeding, and ascites. A TIPS is an accepted interventional procedure indicated for the select group of patients who either have variceal bleeding that does not respond to ...
