Core Tip	In intractable rectal variceal bleeding, transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) has been shown to be an effective method for hemostasis. However, in recurrent bleeding even after successful TIPS, no solid therapeutic approach is available, and various measures should be tried according to clinical conditions. This case report reviews the traditional role of TIPS in rectal variceal bleeding, but also implies the role of variceal embolization in recurrent rectal variceal bleeding even after successful TIPS.
