Purpose: To explore the clinical efficacy and long-term outcomes of accessory hepatic vein (AHV) recanalization as a means of treating hepatic vein (HV)-type Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS).
Methods: Between January 2011 and December 2018, a total of 46 symptomatic HV-type BCS patients were treated by AHV recanalization in our hospital. The technical and clinical success of this treatment, as well as associated long-term patient prognosis was assessed herein.
Results: The AHV recanalization approach was technically successful in 100% of patients, without any instances of complications associated with the operation. This procedure was 95.7% (44/46) clinically successful and resultant. AHV re-obstruction occurred in 12 patients. The cumulative primary one-, two-, and five-year patency rates were 77.3%, 71.7%, and 71.7%, respectively. The secondary cumulative one-, two-, and five-year patency rates were 97.7, 87.1, and 87.1%, respectively. The five-year patency rates did not differ significantly between patients treated with balloons and stents ( = .674). Based on Cox-regression analysis, younger age was an independent predictor of re-obstruction ( = .005). The cumulative one-, two-, and five-year survival rates were 97.7, 92.2, and 92.2%, respectively.
Conclusions: AHV recanalization is a safe and effective treatment for HV-type BCS.

Background: Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) results when the outflow of the hepatic vein (HV) is obstructed. BCS patients exhibiting an accessory HV (AHV) that is dilated but obstructed can achieve significant alleviation of liver congestion after undergoing AHV recanalization. This meta-analysis was developed to explore the clinical efficacy of AHV recanalization in patients with BCS.

Purpose: This study was designed to assess the clinical efficiency and long-term outcomes of hepatic vein (HV) and accessory hepatic vein (AHV) recanalization in patients with HV-type Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS).
Material And Methods: A total of 27 patients with HV-type BCS underwent AHV recanalization and 94 patients had HV recanalization at our center from January 2012 to December 2019. The treatment effectiveness and long-term outcomes were compared.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy and long-term outcomes associated with the treatment of hepatic vein (HV)-type Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) via accessory HV (AHV) recanalization.
Methods: In total, 26 HV-type BCS patients underwent AHV recanalization between July 2014 and December 2019 at our hospital, while 73 HV-type BCS patients without compensatory AHV underwent main HV (MHV) recanalization and served as controls in the present study. Short- and long-term clinical outcomes were compared.

Objective: Interventional treatment is the main therapy for Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) with hepatic vein obstruction. The aim of this study was to investigate the long-term outcomes of endovascular management for BCS with chronic accessory hepatic vein (AHV) obstruction.
Methods: In total, 68 patients with primary BCS who underwent AHV dilation with or without stenting from January 2008 to December 2018 were included in this retrospective study.
