5-year Results of a Prospective Study of Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty

TL;DR: The combination of four variables that together predict if PTA is likely to be successful in the management of a patient with peripheral arterial occlusive disease are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Midodrine, octreotide, albumin, and TIPS in selected patients with cirrhosis and type 1 hepatorenal syndrome

TL;DR: In conclusion, TIPS is an effective treatment for type 1 HRS in suitable patients with cirrhosis and ascites, following the improvement of renal function with combination therapy of midodrine, octreotide, and albumin.
Journal Article

Treatment of Nonresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma with Intrahepatic 90Y-Microspheres

TL;DR: Significantly higher doses of radiation can be delivered to a HCC tumor by intrahepatic arterial administration of 90Y-microspheres than by external beam radiation, and appears to be beneficial in nonresectable HCC with acceptable toxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic stent shunt: effects on hemodynamics and sodium homeostasis in cirrhosis and refractory ascites.

TL;DR: The aim was to better define the pathophysiology of sodium retention by determining the following in patients with refractory ascites treated with TIPS: changes in systemic and renal hemodynamics, renal sodium homeostasis, neurohumoral profile, and central blood volume; and the relation among these variables.
