Fig. 3C —58-year-old man (patient 11) who underwent emergency transjugular
intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) procedure because of variceal bleeding
unresponsive to pharmacologic and endoscopic treatment. One month after TIPS
procedure, patient became stuporous and was treated with reduction stent.
Completion portogram shows antegrade reopacification of intrahepatic portal
veins and clearly visible narrow segment (arrow) of portosystemic
shunt. Coils (arrowheads) placed to occlude esophageal varices, which
reopacified immediately after shunt reduction, are evident.
