Overview
Surgical intervention is not recommended for the management of [disease name].
OR
Surgery is not the first-line treatment option for patients with [disease name]. Surgery is usually reserved for patients with either [indication 1], [indication 2], and [indication 3]
OR
The mainstay of treatment for [disease name] is medical therapy. Surgery is usually reserved for patients with either [indication 1], [indication 2], and/or [indication 3].
OR
The feasibility of surgery depends on the stage of [malignancy] at diagnosis.
OR
Surgery is the mainstay of treatment for [disease or malignancy].
Indications
- Surgery is not the first-line treatment option for patients with [disease name]. Surgery is usually reserved for patients with either:
- [Indication 1]
- [Indication 2]
- [Indication 3]
Surgery
- Surgery procedures of portal vein thrombosis include:
- 1. Shunt surgery
- The preferred surgical shunt is usually distal splenorenal shunt. Splenectomy and other shunt procedures have been performed for patients with splenic vein thrombosis and whom surgery is udertaken.
- In pateinets with portal vein thrombosis indications for shunt surgery include:
- Failed endotherapy
- Symptomatic portal hypertensive biliopathy
- Symptomatic hypersplenism
- Ectopic variceal bleed
- Severe growth retardation
- Poor chances of follow up and on demand one time treatment
- Shunts may be selective or non-selective. The different types of shunt surgery include:
- Selective shunts
- Distal lienorenal shunt
- Mesenteric-left portal vein bypass(Rex shunt)
- Warren Zeppa distal splenorenal shunts
- Mesocaval shunts
- Non-selective shunts
- Portocaval shunts
- Proximal lienorenal shunts
- End to side mesocaval and large diameter interposition portocaval shunts
- Mesocaval shunts
- Selective shunts
- 1. Shunt surgery
- 2. Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunting
- Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunting (TIPS) is bypassing the high flow rate of portal vein into the systemic veins.
- TIPS would decrease the pressure over the portal system and a decreased risk of complications, such as:[1]
