Abstract
Management of portal hypertension commonly involves the creation of a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS). Despite significant advancement in procedural techniques, hepatic encephalopathy (HE) continues to be one of the most consequential complications following TIPS creation. In this manuscript, we describe in detail several factors associated with the clinical condition of patients and TIPS creation that increase the likelihood of post TIPS development of hepatic encephalopathy. We also discuss the management of the post-TIPS encephalopathic patient.
期刊介绍:
Interventional radiology is an area of clinical diagnosis and management that is highly technique-oriented. Therefore, the format of this quarterly journal, which combines the visual impact of an atlas with the currency of a journal, lends itself perfectly to presenting the topics. Each issue is guest edited by a leader in the field and is focused on a single clinical technique or problem. The presentation is enhanced by superb illustrations and descriptive narrative outlining the steps of a particular procedure. Interventional radiologists, neuroradiologists, vascular surgeons and neurosurgeons will find this a useful addition to the clinical literature.
