Background: In cirrhotic patients, portal hypertension increases mortality after surgery. We evaluated the impact of pre-operative transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) on the outcomes of bariatric surgery in cirrhosis.

Methods: Multicentric retrospective cohort.

species are dematiaceous hyphomycetes that are characterised by acropleurogenous, dictyoseptate, campanulate or cheiroid, and brown to dark brown conidia that are composed of several layers of cells radiating from a protuberant basal cell, and mostly seen with appendages arising from the apical cells. The genus was introduced based on morphology to accommodate five of the six species that exhibited holoblastic conidial ontogeny. was referred to as Ascomycota genus as it was challenging to resolve its taxonomic placement based solely on the available morphological data (no DNA sequence data was previously available).

Aim This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) check and revision procedures performed in a freestanding interventional radiology (IR) outpatient facility. Methodology A total of 40 patients (male 31:female 9, median age 60 years old) underwent a TIPS check and/or revision at a freestanding IR outpatient facility between 2009 and 2017. Procedures were performed using a mobile C-arm unit under intravenous (IV) moderate sedation, with the patient discharged home on the same day.

Article Synopsis
  • Heart failure (HF) after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) affects up to 20% of cirrhotic patients, making it crucial to identify risk factors for better outcomes.
  • A retrospective study on 360 cirrhotic patients found that elevated right atrial pressure during TIPS and an increase in left atrial volume index within 180 days post-TIPS were linked to higher risks of HF and mortality, respectively.
  • The findings suggest that while cirrhotic cardiomyopathy status alone isn't predictive, monitoring echocardiographic changes could help identify patients at greater risk for complications after TIPS.

Three-dimensional volumetric CT image fusion and trans-abdominal US: Adjunct guidance to portal vein cannulation for TIPS.

Eur J Radiol

December 2024

Center for Interventional Medicine, The Fifth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, Zhuhai, Guangdong Province 519000, China; Guangdong Provincial Engineering Research Center of Molecular Imaging, The Fifth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, Zhuhai, Guangdong Province 519000, China.

Purpose: To describe portal vein cannulation under adjunct guidance for transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunts (TIPS).

Methods: Medical records of 86 patients who underwent TIPS, including conventional TIPS, 3D volumetric CT image fusion (CT-fluoroscopy image fusion)-guided TIPS, and trans-abdominal ultrasound (US)-guided TIPS at our institute from March 2016 to June 2024 were reviewed. Baseline characteristics, clinical outcomes, and procedural data were analyzed.
