Division of Pediatric Surgery, Department of Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand.
Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of alternative autologous vessel grafts in creating a Meso-Rex bypass (MRB) compared to the distal splenorenal shunt (DSRS) in resolving symptoms of portal hypertension in children.
Methods: All children with EHPVO evaluated for surgery at Siriraj Hospital from January 2011 to December 2023 were reviewed. Alternative autologous vessel grafts were used in all cases where MRB was feasible.
