Figure 4 PTP after BRTO.
BRTO was attempted to occlude splenorenal shunt in order to increase portal blood flow. A 7Fr balloon catheter (arrow) was advanced into the outflow pathway of the splenorenal shunt. A total of 10 mL of 5% ethanolamine oleate iopamidol (EOI) was injected and remained stagnant for a day during balloon occlusion.
