Juan Carlos García-Pagán,Karel Caca,Christophe Bureau,Wim Laleman,Beate Appenrodt,Angelo Luca,Juan G. Abraldes,Frederik Nevens,Jean-Pierre Vinel,Joachim Mössner,Jaime Bosch +10 more
TL;DR: In patients with cirrhosis who were hospitalized for acute variceal bleeding and at high risk for treatment failure, the early use of TIPS was associated with significant reductions in treatment failure and in mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Christophe Bureau,Juan Carlos García-Pagán,Philippe Otal,Gilles Pomier-Layrargues,Valérie Chabbert,Carlos Cortez,Pierre Perreault,Jean-Marie Péron,Juan G. Abraldes,Louis Bouchard,José Ignacio Bilbao,Jaume Bosch,Hervé Rousseau,Jean-Pierre Vinel +13 more
TL;DR: The use of polytetrafluoroethylene-covered prostheses improves transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt patency and decreases the number of clinical relapses and reinterventions without increasing the risk of encephalopathy.
Journal ArticleDOI
