摘要
Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt(TIPS)is an established procedure for treating the complications of portal hypertension in liver cirrhosis.While the pathogenesis of postoperative TIPS-related hepatic encephalopathy(HE)has yet to be fully understood,intraoperative portosystemic shunts may provide a pathological basis for the occurrence of postope-rative HE in patients with liver cirrhosis.Studies at home and abroad have expressed mixed opinions about TIPSrelated HE.This study presents a literature review on the risk factors for and prevention and treatment of perioperative TIPS-related HE in patients with liver cirrhosis,aiming to optimize the procedure and reduce the incidence of postoperative HE.
