ABSTRACT
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES:
Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placement using the same-diameter covered stents can lead to differed declines of portal venous pressure declines (PVDs). This study aimed to compare the long-term shunt patency and clinical efficacy of TIPS placement that caused low PVDs (≤9 mmHg) and high PVDs (>9 mmHg). MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
A total of 129 patients treated by TIPS placement with 8 mm-diameter polytetrafluoroethylene covered stents were included and analyzed retrospectively. They were stratified into group A with low PVDs (nâ¯=â¯69) and group B with high PVDs (n = 60).RESULTS:
The 6-year actuarial probabilities of remaining free of shunt dysfunction (47.2% vs 64.6%; p = 0.007) and variceal rebleeding (48.3% vs 63.9%; p = 0.038) were significantly lower in group A than in group B. The 6-year actuarial probability of remaining free of hepatic encephalopathy was significantly higher in group A than in group B (44.5% vs 32.5%; p = 0.010), though the 6-year cumulative survival rate was similar in both groups (A vs B 65.5% vs 56.0%; p = 0.240). The baseline portal vein thrombosis (hazard ratio [HR] 6.045, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.762-13.233; p = 0.000) and stent type (HR 4.447, 95%CI 1.711-11.559, p = 0.002) were associated with shunt dysfunction, whereas only ascites was associated with mortality (HR 1.373, 95%CI 1.114-3.215; p = 0.024).CONCLUSION:
High PVDs (>9 mmHg) were associated with higher shunt patency, lower incidence of variceal rebleeding, but higher frequency of hepatic encephalopathy and similar survival rate than low PVDs (≤9 mmHg) after TIPS placement.Palavras-chave
