ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION:

Occlusion of spontaneous portosystemic shunts (SPSSs) in patients with cirrhosis may be required in recurrent or refractory hepatic encephalopathy. We describe a novel method for occlusion of SPSS using endoscopic ultrasound (EUS).

METHODS:

EUS-guided transgastric shunt obliteration was performed by injecting glue and coils directly into SPSS.

RESULTS:

EUS-guided transgastric shunt obliteration was performed for 7 patients in 9 sessions. Complete cessation of Doppler flow was achieved in 6/7 cases. Adequate clinical response was observed in 6/7 patients. No procedure-related severe adverse events were seen.

DISCUSSION:

This novel technique is a potentially effective and efficient method for shunt obliteration.
