Endovascular Transjugular Occlusion of Congenital Intrahepatic Portosystemic Venous Shunt Using Simultaneous Fluoroscopy and Transabdominal Ultrasound Guidance: Report of 2 Cases.
Current Problems in Diagnostic Radiology 2018 March 21
Congenital intrahepatic portosystemic venous shunts (CIPVS) are rare anomalies that can be detected before birth or in early infancy or later in life. Symptomatic shunts are treated as they carry high risk of complications like hepatic encephalopathy. Various treatment options include surgery, endovascular embolization, and percutaneous closure devices. We treated 2 infants with CIPVS successfully by endovascular embolization of the shunt using vascular plug through transjugular route. Transabdominal ultrasound guidance in addition to fluoroscopy was used at the time of vascular plug placement. We emphasize that the use of transabdominal ultrasound during endovascular occlusion enhances the safety and technical success rate.
