Key Words Peritoneovenous shunt; Liver cirrhosis; Refractory ascites; Prognostic factor; Scoring system
Core Tip This study culminated in the proposal of a novel scoring system to predict prognosis after peritoneovenous shunt placement for refractory ascites in patients with liver cirrhosis. In an analysis of 100 cases, four prognostic factors were identified: Age ≥ 60 years; Child-Pugh score ≥ 10; female sex; and liver volume < 1057 mL. Patients were stratified into peritoneovenous shunt grade A (0-2 points) and grade B (3-4 points), with significantly better survival observed in grade A. This scoring system may support clinical decision-making and improve patient outcomes.
