  • Title: [Treatment of hemorrhagic syndrome caused by peritoneovenous shunt with a flow regulation device].
    Author: Violi V, Montanari M, Roncoroni L.
    Journal: G Chir; 1990; 11(7-8):413-5. PubMed ID: 2282274.
    Abstract:
    A case of severe coagulopathy after peritoneovenous shunting for intractable ascites and hepatorenal syndrome in a cirrhotic patient is reported. It was controlled and solved without removal of the shunt, using a vascular tourniquet which allowed a regulation of the ascitic flow. The method seems susceptible of improvement and could be routinely used in risk patients.
