- Congenital portosystemic shunts (CPSS) are rare health issues that can cause serious problems such as brain dysfunction, lung issues, and high blood pressure in the lungs.
- The study analyzed 24 patients who underwent transcatheter closure of CPSS, finding that the procedure was successful in most cases, leading to improved health outcomes like normalized blood saturation and reduced pulmonary hypertension.
- While the initial results of the procedure are promising, indicating potential for effective treatment, longer follow-up is necessary to assess the long-term benefits of the transcatheter closure of CPSS.
