Limited vascular access because of vessel injury or thrombosis may complicate care of children with congenital heart disease. Although transhepatic venous access for cardiac catheterization and central venous catheter placement has been used in children, its use for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has not been described. We report successful use of transhepatic cannulation for venovenous ECMO to support a 15 month-old child with bidirectional Glenn anatomy and intractable hypoxemia.

Aim: Compare the efficacy and procedural efficiency of central vascular plug-assisted portal vein embolization (PVE) with absolute ethanol compared to selective PVE.
Materials And Methods: Between 2016 and 2023, patients who underwent ipsilateral percutaneous transhepatic PVE were included. Selective PVE involves serial cannulation and embolization of portal veins.

Department of Radiology, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran.
Background: Percutaneous Trans hepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) is a successful palliative treatment for malignant obstructive jaundice. Despite the past that PTBD complications occur more frequently. Currently, with the help of an ultrasound guide, these side effects and possibility of adjacent organ damages have decreased interestingly.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the effectiveness of two techniques—percutaneous transhepatic obliteration with initial afferent vein embolization (PTO-A) and initial efferent vein embolization (PTO-E)—for treating gastric varices (GVs).
- 26 patients with type 1 or type 2 gastric varices were treated, with positive outcomes seen in both methods; however, PTO-E demonstrated a significantly higher complete eradication rate (100% vs. 33.3%).
- Patients who underwent PTO-E also experienced a longer median recurrence-free period (75.1 months) compared to those who had PTO-A (8.7 months), although overall survival rates were similar for both groups.
Efficacy of Double-Lumen Biliary-Enteric Tube in Enteral Nutrition for Patients with Malignant Obstructive Jaundice.
Nutr Cancer
November 2024
Department of Ultrasonography, First People's Hospital of Yinchuan, Ningxia, China.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a double-lumen biliary-enteric tube (DBET) for enteral nutrition (EN) in individuals with malignant obstructive jaundice (MOJ).
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted using data from a prospectively maintained single-center database, including patients with MOJ. In the intervention group, DBET placement was performed concurrently with percutaneous transhepatic cholangiodrainage and biliary stenting, followed by postoperative EN (DBET-EN).
Transhepatic Transcatheter Pulmonary Valve Replacement.
JACC Case Rep
August 2024
Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, Division of Cardiology, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, Virginia, USA.
Transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) is complicated in patients without adequate femoral or internal jugular vascular access. Transhepatic vascular access has been shown to be safe and effective across a spectrum of diagnostic and interventional procedures. Closure of the hepatic venous tract can be accomplished with a multitude of readily available vascular occlusion devices.
