Timing and efficacy of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt in patients with pyrrolizidine alkaloid-induced hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome

Abstract There is no specific treatment for pyrrolizidine alkaloid-induced hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (PA-HSOS). It is not clear when transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) should be implemented in PA-HSOS patients. This study aimed to evaluate the timing of TIPS using tot...

This study aimed to evaluate the timing of TIPS using total bilirubin (TBIL) as a measure, and to investigate efficacy of TIPS. We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 10 PA-HSOS patients, among whom 4 patients had received TIPS (TIPS group), and the remaining patients were assigned to the internal medicine group. In the TIPS group, the TBIL level before TIPS was 84.4 ± 45.2 µmol/L (> 3 mg/dL), and TBIL levels were increased to different degrees after TIPS. With the extension of time, serum TBIL levels gradually decreased, and no liver failure occurred.

It was also found TIPS effectively promote the recovery of liver function and reduce the occurrence of chronicity.Fan WuJiao YuHongying GanHeng ZhangDeying TianDan ZhengNature PortfolioarticleMedicineRScienceQENScientific Reports, Vol 11, Iss 1, Pp 1-7 (2021)
