Percutaneous recanalization of non-cirrhotic extrahepatic portal vein obstruction in children: technical considerations in a preliminary cohort.
Objectives: Portal hypertension resulting from non-cirrhotic extrahepatic portal vein obstruction (EHPVO) in children has been primarily managed with the Meso-Rex bypass, but only a few patients have a viable Rex recessus, required by surgery. This study reports a preliminary series of patients who underwent interventional radiology attempts at portal vein recanalization (PVR), with a focus on technical aspects and safety.
Methods: A retrospective review of consecutive patients with severe portal hypertension due to non-cirrhotic EHPVO at a single institution from 2022, who underwent percutaneous attempts at PVR, was performed. Technical and clinical data including fluoroscopy time, radiation exposure, technical and clinical success, complications and follow-up were recorded.
Results: Eleven patients (6 males and 5 females; median age 7 years, range 1-14) underwent 15 percutaneous transhepatic (n = 1), transplenic (n = 11), or simultaneous transhepatic/transplenic (n = 3) procedures. Rex recessus was patent in 4/11 (36%). Fluoroscopy resulted in a high median total dose area product (DAP) of 123 Gycm2 (range 17-788 Gycm2) per procedure. PVR was achieved in 5/11 patients (45%), 3/5 with obliterated Rex recessus. Two adverse events of grade 2 and grade 3 occurred without sequelae. After angioplasty, 4/5 patients required stenting to obtain sustained patency, as demonstrated by colour-Doppler ultrasound in all PVR after a median follow-up of 6 months (range 6-14).
Conclusion: Our preliminary experience suggests that 45% of children with non-cirrhotic EHPVO can restore portal flow even with obliterated Rex recessus. In non-cirrhotic EHPVO, PVR may be an option, if a Meso-Rex bypass is not feasible, although the radiation exposure deserves attention.
Clinical relevance statement: Innovative percutaneous procedures may have the potential to be an alternative option to the traditional surgical approach in the management of non-cirrhotic EHPVO and its complications in children not eligible for Meso-Rex bypass surgery.
Key points: Non-cirrhotic portal hypertension in children has been traditionally managed by surgery with Meso-Rex bypass creation. Percutaneous PVR may restore the patency of the native portal system even when the Rex recessus is obliterated and surgery has been excluded. Interventional radiological techniques may offer a minimally invasive solution in complex cases of EHPVO in children when Meso-Rex bypass is not feasible.
期刊介绍:
European Radiology (ER) continuously updates scientific knowledge in radiology by publication of strong original articles and state-of-the-art reviews written by leading radiologists. A well balanced combination of review articles, original papers, short communications from European radiological congresses and information on society matters makes ER an indispensable source for current information in this field.
This is the Journal of the European Society of Radiology, and the official journal of a number of societies.
From 2004-2008 supplements to European Radiology were published under its companion, European Radiology Supplements, ISSN 1613-3749.
