Portal Hypertensive Gastropathy and <scp>MELD</scp>‐Na Score Predict Recurrent Gastrointestinal Bleeding After <scp>TIPSS</scp>: An <scp>ALTA</scp> Group Study
In this retrospective analysis of a multicentre, nationally representative database, we found that apart from TIPSS-related factors, high MELD-Na and portal hypertensive gastropathy on pre-TIPSS endoscopy were independent predictors of rebleeding within 1 year following TIPSS. These variables may be used to identify high-risk patients who may require additional monitoring following TIPSS.
