1
Medical treatment was performed in all patients and portosystemic shunt in three.
2
The importance of obliterating huge portosystemic shunt during liver transplantation is obvious for successful ALDLT.
3
Background: Pulmonary dysfunctions including the hepatopulmonary syndrome and portosystemic shunt are important complications of hepatic cirrhosis.
4
However, the liver volume is not significantly correlated with portal blood flux and portosystemic shunt index.
5
We examined background factors such as age, biochemical test results, HCC occurrence and portosystemic shunt by computed tomography.
6
The aim of our study was to present two patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome treated with transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt.
7
This report is the first description of a portosystemic shunt, likely congenital, linking these 2 vessels resulting in clinically significant hepatic encephalopathy.
8
To investigate the severity and nature of abnormal gas diffusing capacity and its correlation to portosystemic shunt in patients with chronic liver disease.
9
We reported a case of an asymptomatic 14-year-old Chinese adolescent girl in Hong Kong with a confirmed congenital portosystemic shunt type 1b.
10
Abdominal computed tomography demonstrated large portosystemic shunts associated with cirrhosis of the liver.
11
There was no statistically significant and independent influence of surgical portosystemic shunts on survival.
12
Hemangioma may be a clinical pointer to portosystemic shunts even in the absence of obvious liver disease.
13
Nevertheless, we conclude that percutaneous transluminal angioplasty should be the first intention procedure for treating stenosis of portosystemic shunts.
14
The aim of this study was to assess the factors, including surgical portosystemic shunts, which affect survival in adults with Budd-Chiari syndrome.
