The major aims of interventional procedures for portal hypertension are prophylactic and emergent treatment of variceal bleeding, control of hepatic encephalopathy, and treatment of refractory ascites. Hypersplenism associated with hematological disorder is an additional clinical problem in patients with portal hypertension. At present, the main primary embolotherapies available for portal hypertension are balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration (BRTO) and partial splenic embolization (PSE). In Japan, BRTO has recently been applied for gastric varices instead of either endoscopic treatment or transhepatic intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) procedure, and numerous studies have reported that this method has an excellent success rate. Its efficacy for control of hepatic encephalopathy has also been demonstrated. [Pg.99]

Another report describes the balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration, which is traditionally based on liquid sclerotherapy. However, overdose and systemic spillage of liquid sclerosant can cause severe complications, such as haemolysis that can lead to haemoglobinuria, allergy, acute respiratory distress S5mdrome and other disorders. [Pg.742]

In all patients, foam was observed in the target vessels at C-arm CT. The mean dose of polidocanol used for balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration was significantly smaller than the dose of contrast medimn used for venography. Haemoglobinuria was foimd in only one patient. Except in one instance of recanalisation, full variceal thrombosis was confirmed at contrast-enhanced CT 1 week after transvenous obliteration. In one patient, air migrated into the liver during transvenous obliteration, but it was spontaneously absorbed. [Pg.742]
