Core Tip |
Refractory ascites is a serious complication of cirrhosis and portal hypertension with a one-year mortality of 50%. The only curative treatment for refractory ascites is liver transplantation, whilst the non-surgical treatments for refractory ascites include large volume paracentesis (LVP) and transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic stent shunt (TIPSS). A randomized controlled trial showed covered TIPSS can improve survival compared to LVP. In our real world cohort of selected patients with cirrhosis and advanced liver failure, we demonstrate that covered TIPSS results in similar transplant free survival compared to LVP following propensity score matching. This suggests that all patients with refractory ascites that are eligible for TIPSS should be considered for liver transplantation. |
