Congenital extrahepatic portosystemic shunt (CEPS) or Abernethy malformation is a rare condition in which splanchnic venous blood bypasses the liver draining directly into systemic circulation through congenital shunt. Patients may develop hepatic encephalopathy (HE), pulmonary hypertension (PaHT), tumors, among other complications. However, actual incidence of such complications unknown, mainly because lack protocolized approach to these patients. This study characterizes clinical...
Baveno-VI guidelines recommend that patients with compensated cirrhosis liver stiffness by transient elastography (LSM-TE) <20 kPa and platelets >150,000/mm(3) do not need an esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) to screen for varices, since the risk of having varices needing treatment (VNT) is <5%. It remains uncertain if this tool can be used in cholestatic diseases (ChLDs): primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) sclerosing (PSC). These may have a pre-sinusoidal component portal hypertension could...
Abstract Background The value of serum triglycerides (TGs) related to complications and the severity acute pancreatitis (AP) has not been clearly defined. Our study aimed analyze association elevated levels TG with AP. Methods demographic clinical data patients AP were prospectively analyzed. measured in first 24 h admission. Patients divided into two groups: one values of<200 mg/dL another TG≥200 mg/dL. Data on outcomes collected. Results From January 2016 December 2019, 247 cases...
Liver injury has been widely described in patients with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We aimed to study the effect of liver biochemistry alterations, previous disease, and value elastography on hard clinical outcomes COVID-19 patients. conducted a single-center prospective observational 370 consecutive admitted for polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-confirmed pneumonia. Clinical laboratory data were collected at baseline parameters events recorded during follow-up. Transient [with...
Aim: to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of self-expandable metal stent placement for malignant gastric outlet obstruction (GOO). Methods: a retrospective, analytic cohort study at single, tertiary-care center. Results: thirty-six patients that underwent GOO origin were identified during period. Technical success was achieved in 36 (100 %) clinical 31 (86.1 %). Before procedure, 17 (54.8 had score (GOOSS) 0, which is complete inability oral intake. Twenty-three alive 30 days after two...
