Fibrosis Progression in Patients with Budd-Chiari Syndrome and Transjugular Shunt (TIPS): A Long-Term Study Using Transient Elastography
2024-01-03
Abstract excerpt
Hepatic vein outflow obstruction causes congestion of the liver, leading to necrosis, fibrosis, and portal hypertension (PH). Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) reduces congestion and PH by providing artificial outflow. The aim of the study was to investigate fibrosis progression in patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) and TIPS using transient elastography (TE). From 2010 to 2022, 25 patients...
