Effect of portal pressure gradient reduction on outcomes after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt in portal hypertension patients
A significant PPG reduction following TIPS is associated with improved clinical outcomes, including reduced risks of rebleeding, shunt dysfunction, hepatocellular carcinoma, and mortality, though it increases HE and liver failure risks. The observed correlation between portal vein diameter and PPG reduction highlights the potential role of portal vein anatomy in predicting TIPS efficacy, warranting further investigation.
