Clinical Course of Cirrhotic Patients With Portal Vein Thrombosis Treated With TIPS

NCT03031717 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 15

Last updated 2020-03-02

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) is defined as an obstruction of the portal vein. The prevalence of PVT is 10-25% and incidence is about 16% in cirrhotic patients. PVT leads to increased intrahepatic resistance, decreased portal velocities, splanchnic vasodilatation, and stagnant flow.

Portal vein recanalization (PVR) with transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is aimed at restoring main portal vein (PV) flow in chronic PVT. In this study, we will review the safety and outcomes of this approach.
