ARTICLE HIGHLIGHTS
Research background
In clinical practice, portal vein thrombosis (PVT) was previously a contraindication for trans-jugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS).
Research motivation
Evaluating TIPS utility in the management of cirrhotic patients with PVT.
Research objectives
To review systematically the current evidence of TIPS in the management of cirrhotic patients with PVT.
Research methods
Search and evaluate the relevant published paper and then extract and analyze the key data.
Research results
TIPS can be safely carried out using a different approach in cirrhotic patient with PVT. However, in patients with cavernous transformation, it is relatively difficult.
Research conclusions
TIPS is indicated for portal hypertension related complications and the restoration of pre-transplantation portal vein patency in cirrhotic patients with PVT. Cavernous transformation is an indicator for technical failure.
Research perspectives
TIPS could be carried out in most of cirrhotic patients with PVT. We plan to carry out a similar study with a prospective design to evaluate TIPS utility for patients with PVT.
