pubmed:abstractText |
Clinical and procedural experience using transjugylar intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) on 7 children with recurrent hemorrhage of esophageal varices is reported. Recurrent hemorrhage from esophageal varices following repeated paravasal sclerosing of the varices as well as severe-grade hypersplenism are proposed as the indication for its use. The technical details of TIPS, observed and possible early and late complications, the demand for a decrease in the portosystemic pressure gradient to less than 15 mmHg and the influence of TIPS on improvement of the varices, hypersplenism and the frequently observed malabsorption are described.
