Mesocaval Shunt - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Mesocaval shunt is an anastomosis between the superior end of the divided IVC and the side of the superior mesenteric vein. In principle, it is hemodynamically similar to the side-to-side PCS. In patients with extrahepatic PH due to occlusion of the PV, this type of shunt is very effective.
Mesocaval shunt creation by interventional radiology: …
Knowledge of the different approaches to mesocaval shunt creation provides options for patients that are not candidates for TIPS, DIPS or surgery. The case-based review describes the various techniques for consideration by the interventional radiologist.
Mesocaval shunt - Abdominal Key
2016年5月31日 · The mesocaval interposition shunt is technically less challenging than the distal splenorenal shunt and requires minimal retroperitoneal dissection. It effectively relieves portal hypertension, and in contrast to the distal splenorenal shunt, it also relieves or prevents secondary ascites.
Could there be light at the end of the tunnel? Mesocaval shunting …
2016年7月8日 · Mesocaval shunts are stent grafts placed by interventional radiologists between the mesenteric system, most often the superior mesenteric vein, and the inferior vena cava. This allows flow to bypass the congested hepatic system, reducing portal pressures.
The Interposition Mesocaval Shunt - ScienceDirect
1990年4月1日 · The interposition mesocaval shunt provides an excellent alternative for the management of bleeding esophageal varices. The comparable operative mortality and minimal operative time and blood loss make it the procedure of choice as an emergency shunt.
Mesoportal bypass, interposition graft, and mesocaval shunt: …
2020年12月1日 · From an operative perspective, we identified 5 potential strategies to consider for resection: collateral preservation, mesoportal bypass (preresection), mesoportal interposition graft (postresection), mesocaval shunt, and various combinations of these strategies.
Mesocaval Shunt - SpringerLink
2015年1月1日 · The mesocaval shunt decompresses portal hypertension with an interposition graft between the superior mesenteric vein (SMV) and the inferior vena cava (IVC). Popularized by Drapanas in the 1970s, it has had several proponents since, and most highlight that it is a shunt performed remote from the hepatic hilus.
Mesocaval Shunt Creation for Jejunal Variceal Bleeding with …
2018年1月1日 · In this case report, we describe a minimally invasive endovascular mesocaval shunt creation with transsplenic approach for the management of recurrent variceal bleeding in a portal hypertension patient with intra- and extrahepatic portal vein occlusion.
Mesocaval shunt for portal hypertensive small bowel bleeding …
2012年5月22日 · In the present study we present an interesting case of recurrent massive small bowel bleeding in a patient with portal hypertension secondary to liver cirrhosis. An interposition mesocaval shunt procedure was successfully carried out on an emergency basis that eventually managed to control bleeding.
Surgical anatomy of the mesocaval shunt - Surgery
A knowledge of these variations in the surgical anatomy of the superior mesenteric vein should make mesocaval shunts easier and safer to perform. This paper is only available as a PDF . References
