  • Title: [Budd-Chiari syndrome. Treatment by meso-atrial shunt].
    Author: Huguet C, Brissonnière OG.
    Journal: Presse Med; ; 12(29):1817-9. PubMed ID: 6224197.
    Abstract:
    Tight stenosis or obstruction of the inferior vena cava complicates the treatment of chronic Budd-Chiari syndrome. A possible therapeutic measure is to establish an artificial shunt between the superior mesenteric vein and the right atrium. Shunting is facilitated by using a long, ringed P.T.F.E. (Goretex) prosthesis.
