Excerpt

In this month’s issue of CVIR, Steffan et al. report on their experience with splenic and mesenteric intervention with a timely review of advances in splenic and mesenteric access for application in patients with chronic portal vein thrombosis [1]. Using the splenic and mesenteric accesses (superior and inferior mesenteric veins), they were able to decompress portal hypertension by placing a TIPS using this novel access method. They conclude that this approach is safe, with no bleeding complications, no risk to bowel, and should be added to the toolbox of the interventional radiologist when confronted with complex portal occlusions requiring decompression. This paper adds to the existing body of literature [2]. …
