TIPS выполнен у 6 пациентов, внесенных в «лист ожидания» ортотопической трансплантации печени (ОТП). Показаниями к TIPS были продолжающееся кровотечение (n=1) или высокий риск рецидива кровотечения из варикозно-расширенных вен пищевода и желудка (n=4), диуретикорезистентный асцит (n=1).</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты</title><p>Результаты. TIPS успешно проведен у всех больных. Портовенозный градиент снизился в 2—3 раза (до 9—12 мм рт.ст.). За время дальнейшего наблюдения рецидива варикозного кровотечения или асцита не было ни у одного пациента. Данные допплерографии свидетельствовали о хорошей функции шунта. У 3 больных успешно выполнена ОТП соответственно через 2, 8 и 19 мес после TIPS, 1 больная в течение 5 мес находится в ожидании, а 2 пациента скончались через 1 и 5 мес от сепсиса и печеночной недостаточности соответственно.</p></sec><sec><title>Заключение</title><p>Заключение. Первые результаты свидетельствуют о том, что у больных циррозом печени, осложненным портальной гипертензией, TIPS можно рассматривать как «мостик» безопасности в период ожидания донорской печени.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><sec><title>Objective</title><p>Objective: to assess the first results of transjugular intrahepatic portocaval shunting (TIPS) as a technique for preventing portal hypertension complications in patients in the period of waiting for a donor liver.</p></sec><sec><title>Subjects and methods</title><p>Subjects and methods. TIPS was performed in 6 patients on the list of waiting for orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). The indications for TIPS were current (n=1) or high-risk recurrent hemorrhages from the esophageal varices and stomach (n=4) and diuretic-resistant ascitis (n=1).</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Results. TIPS was successfully carried out in all the patients. The portovenous gradient was reduced by 2—3 times (to 9—12 mm Hg). A further follow-up revealed recurrent varicose hemorrhage or ascitis in none patients. Doppler study indicated that the shunt showed a good function. OLT was successfully made in 3 patients 2, 8, and 19 months after TIPS; one female patient had been waiting for OLT for 5 months; 2 patients died from sepsis and hepatic failure following 1 and 5 months, respectively.</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusion</title><p>Conclusion. The first results suggest that in patients with hepatic cirrhosis complicated with portal hypertension, TIPS can be regarded as a safety bridge while waiting for a donor liver.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>портокавальный шунт</kwd><kwd>интервенционная радиология</kwd><kwd>цирроз печени</kwd><kwd>портальная гипертензия</kwd><kwd>ортотопическая трансплантация печени</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>portocaval shunt</kwd><kwd>intervention radiology</kwd><kwd>hepatic cirrhosis</kwd><kwd>portal hypertension</kwd><kwd>orthotopic liver transplantation</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Rösch J., Hanafee W.N., Snow H.
