Hepatic Artery Injury and Arterio-Portal Shunting During Transjugular Liver Biopsy: A Case Based Teaching
نویسندگان
چکیده
Trasjugular liver biopsy is a safe modality of tissue acquisition in the presence of advanced liver disease, obesity and conditions that preclude percutaneous approach, but not without complications. High volume liver centres experience minor and major complications of this procedure with although with good outcomes in the presence of multimodal approach to salvage. In this short review, we present a rare case of arterio portal shunting and capsular perforation in a patient who underwent transvenous liver biopsy and briefly review the procedure and its complications.

A 59 year-old woman with liver cirrhosis due to hepatitis C, complicated by refractory hepatic hydrothorax was treated with a TIPS (transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt) procedure. The procedure was complicated by substantial gastrointestinal hemorrhage. EGD (esophagogastroduodenoscopy) was performed and revealed hemobilia.

Arterio-portal fistula may develop at the biopsy site after percutaneous liver biopsy and demonstrates a characteristic appearance on angiography and Lipiodol computed tomography scan of the liver performed shortly after the biopsy. Radiologists should be familiar with these findings in order to avoid misinterpretation of arterio-portal fistula as hepatoma in hepatitis B carriers.

RATIONALE Esophageal variceal bleeding caused by portal hypertension is massive and life-threatening to those patients with decompensated liver cirrhosis. A transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) can effectively stop bleeding. But the process of puncture may lead to bile duct injury and even form fistulas between the hepatic artery and bile duct. PATIENT CONCERNS The case report...
