    Author: Ryu RK, Nemcek AA, Chrisman HB, Saker MB, Blei A, Omary RA, Vogelzang RL.
    Journal: Cardiovasc Intervent Radiol; 2000; 23(4):301-3. PubMed ID: 10960545.
    Abstract:
    We report a case in which recurrent hemorrhage from stomal varices was successfully treated by placement of a TIPS in a patient with prior colectomy for inflammatory bowel disease. Although several treatment options have been reported for this entity we believe that TIPS offers minimally invasive and definitive treatment.
