Morris RI, Jackson N, Smith A, Black SA. A Systematic Review of the Safety and Efficacy of Inferior Vena Cava Stenting. Eur J Vasc Endovasc Surg 2023; 65:298-308. [PMID: 36334902 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejvs.2022.11.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2022] [Revised: 10/05/2022] [Accepted: 11/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Inferior vena cava (IVC) stenting may provide benefit to patients with symptomatic obstruction; however, there are no devices currently licensed for use in the IVC and systematic reviews on the topic are lacking. The aim of this study was to carry out a systematic review of the literature and meta-analysis to investigate the safety and efficacy of IVC stenting in all adult patient groups. DATA SOURCES The Medline and Embase databases were searched for studies reporting outcomes for safety and effectiveness of IVC stenting for any indication in series of 10 or more patients. REVIEW METHODS A systematic review of the literature was carried out according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. RESULTS Thirty-three studies were included describing 1 575 patients. Indications for stenting were malignant IVC syndrome (229 patients), thrombotic disease (807 patients), Budd-Chiari syndrome (501 patients), and IVC stenosis post liver transplantation (47 patients). The male:female ratio was 2:1 and the median age ranged from 30 to 61 years. The studies included were not suitable for formal meta-analysis as 30/33 were single centre retrospective studies with no control groups and there was considerable inconsistency in outcome reporting. There was significant risk of bias in 94% of studies. Median reported technical success was 100% (range 78 - 100%), primary patency was 75% (38 - 98%), and secondary patency was 91.5% (77 - 100%). Major complications were pulmonary embolism (three cases), stent migration (12 cases), and major bleeding (15 cases), and there were three deaths in the immediate post-operative period. Most studies reported improvement in clinical symptoms but formal reporting tools were not used consistently. CONCLUSION The evidence base for IVC stenting consists of predominantly single centre, retrospective, observational studies that have a high risk of bias. Nonetheless the procedure appears safe with few major adverse events, and studies that reported clinical outcomes demonstrate improvement in symptoms and quality of life. Randomised controlled trials and prospective registry based studies with larger patient numbers and standardised outcome are required to improve the evidence base for this procedure.

Mukhiya G, Jiao D, Han X, Zhou X, Pokhrel G. Survival and clinical success of endovascular intervention in patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome: A systematic review. J Clin Imaging Sci 2023; 13:5. [PMID: 36751561 PMCID: PMC9899460 DOI: 10.25259/jcis_130_2022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2022] [Accepted: 01/14/2023] [Indexed: 01/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Budd-Chiari syndrome is a complex clinical disorder of hepatic venous outflow obstruction, originating from the accessory hepatic vein (HV), large HV, and suprahepatic inferior vena cava (IVC). This disorder includes both HV and IVC obstructions and hepatopathy. This study aimed to conduct a systematic review of the survival rate and clinical success of different types of endovascular treatments for Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS). All participant studies were retrieved from four databases and selected according to the eligibility criteria for systematic review of patients with BCS. The survival rate, clinical success of endovascular treatments in BCS, and survival rates at 1 and 5 years of publication year were calculated accordingly. A total of 3398 patients underwent an endovascular operation; among them, 93.6% showed clinical improvement after initial endovascular treatment. The median clinical success rates for recanalization, transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS), and combined procedures were 51%, 17.50%, and 52.50%, respectively. The median survival rates at 1 and 5 years were 51% and 51% for recanalization, 17.50% and 16% for TIPS, and 52.50% and 49.50% for combined treatment, respectively. Based on the year of publication, the median survival rates at 1 and 5 years were 23.50% and 22.50% before 2000, 41% and 41% in 2000‒2005, 35% and 35% in 2006‒2010, 51% and 48.50% in 2010‒2015, and 56% and 55.50% after 2015, respectively. Our findings indicate that the median survival rate at 1 and 5 years of recanalization treatment is higher than that of TIPS treatment, and recanalization provides better clinical improvement. The publication year findings strongly suggest progressive improvements in interventional endovascular therapy for BCS. Thus, interventional therapy restoring the physiologic hepatic venous outflow of the liver can be considered as the treatment of choice for patients with BCS which is a physiological modification procedure.

Evaluation of outcome from endovascular therapy for Budd-Chiari syndrome: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Sci Rep 2022; 12:16166. [PMID: 36171454 PMCID: PMC9519873 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-20399-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2021] [Accepted: 09/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
This study was performed to evaluate the outcome of endovascular intervention therapy for Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) and compare recanalization, transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS)/direct intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (DIPS), and combined procedure treatment. For the meta-analysis, 71 studies were identified by searching four databases. The individual studies’ samples were used to calculate a confidence interval (CI 95%), and data were pooled using a fixed-effect model and random effect model. The pooled measure and an equal-weighted average rate were calculated in all participant studies. Heterogeneity between the studies was assessed with I2, and T2 tests, and publication bias was estimated using Egger’s regression test. A total of 4,407 BCS patients had undergone an endovascular intervention procedure. The pooled results were 98.9% (95% CI 97.8‒98.9%) for a technical success operation, and 96.9% (95% CI 94.9‒98.9%) for a clinical success operation. The re-intervention rate after the initial intervention procedure was 18.9% (95% CI 14.7‒22.9%), and the survival rates at 1 and 5 years after the initial intervention procedure were 98.9% (95% CI 96.8‒98.9%) and 94.9% (95% CI 92.9‒96.9%), respectively. Patients receiving recanalization treatment (98%) had a better prognosis than those with a combined procedure (95.6%) and TIPS/DIPS treatment (94.5%). The systematic review and meta-analysis further solidify the role of endovascular intervention treatment in BCS as safe and effective. It maintains high technical and clinical success and long-term survival rates. The recanalization treatment had a better prognosis and outcome than the combined procedures and TIPS/DIPS treatment.

Abstract
Budd Chiari syndrome (BCS) is a diverse disease with regard to the site of obstruction, the predisposing thrombophilic disorders and clinical presentation across the Asia-Pacific region. The hepatic vein ostial stenosis and short segment thrombosis are common in some parts of Asia-Pacific region, while membranous obstruction of the vena cava is common in some and complete thrombosis of hepatic veins in others. Prevalence of myeloproliferative neoplasms and other thrombophilic disorders in BCS varies from region to region and with different sites of obstruction. This heterogeneity also raises several issues and dilemmas in evaluation and approach to management of a patient with BCS. The opportunity to recanalize hepatic vein in patients with hepatic vein ostial stenosis or inferior vena cava stenting or pasty among those membranous obstruction of the vena cava is a unique opportunity in the Asia-Pacific region to restore hepatic outflow closely mimicking physiology. In order to address these issues arising out of the diversity as well as the unique features in the region, the Asia Pacific Association for Study of Liver has formulated these guidelines for clinicians.

Abstract
Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) is an uncommon condition, caused by obstruction to hepatic venous outflow. It is largely underdiagnosed, and a high index of suspicion is required for any patient with unexplained portal hypertension. The understanding of its etiology and pathology is improving with advances in diagnostic techniques. Recent studies reported an identifiable etiology in > 80% of cases. Myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) is the most common etiology, and genetic studies help in diagnosing latent MPN. Better cross-sectional imaging helps delineate the site of obstruction accurately. The majority of BCS patients are now treated by endovascular intervention and anticoagulation which have improved survival in this disease. Angioplasty of hepatic veins/inferior vena cava remains under-utilized at present. While surgical porto-systemic shunts are no longer done for BCS, liver transplantation is reserved for select indications. Some of the unresolved issues in the current management of BCS are also discussed in this review.

Long-Term Outcomes of Endovascular Interventions in More than 500 patients with Budd-Chiari Syndrome. J Vasc Interv Radiol 2020; 32:61-69.e1. [PMID: 33218919 DOI: 10.1016/j.jvir.2020.08.035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2020] [Revised: 08/29/2020] [Accepted: 08/31/2020] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To assess and compare the long-term outcomes of various endovascular interventions in patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS). MATERIALS AND METHODS In this single-center retrospective study, 510 consecutive patients with BCS who had undergone a total of 618 endovascular procedures from January 2001 to December 2019 were included. Details of the type of endovascular intervention, technical success, clinical success, patency rate, complications, and survival outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS The overall technical success rate was 96% (593 of 618 procedures; 500 in treatment-naïve patients and 93 repeat interventions for recurrent disease). Endovascular procedures included recanalization procedures (angioplasty and stent placement) in 355 patients (71%) and transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) creation in 145 (29%). Major postprocedure complications occurred in 14 patients (2.8%). Vascular/stent restenosis occurred in 95 patients (19%), and successful repeat intervention was performed in 82 of those 95 (86.3%). An additional 11 of these 82 (13.4%) underwent a third intervention for restenosis. In the recanalization and TIPS groups, the 1- and 5-y cumulative patency rates were 87% and 74% and 95% and 68%, respectively. The 1- and 5-y survival rates were 96% and 89% and 90% and 76%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Endovascular interventions for BCS are feasible and safe in the majority of patients, with excellent short- and long-term patency and survival rates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM This aims to study incidence of re-bleeding on anticoagulation and survival of Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) patients presenting with variceal bleeding. METHODS Budd-Chiari syndrome patients presenting with variceal bleed between 01/01/2007 and 01/05/2019 were retrospectively studied. Patients underwent endoscopic treatment ± endovascular therapy, followed by anticoagulation. Variceal re-bleed (on anticoagulation) and survival were studied. RESULTS Of 376 BCS patients diagnosed during the study period, 40 (10.7%) patients, presenting with variceal bleed (age 33 [25-40] years; male patients 70%; Rotterdam score 1.13 [0.63-1.22]), Group 1 were compared with 40 randomly selected age-matched BCS patients presenting with ascites, no bleeds (40 [23-42] years; male patients 42.5%; Rotterdam score 1.11 [1.09-1.16]), Group 2. The commonest site of obstruction was hepatic vein (65%) in Group 1 and combined hepatic veins and inferior vena cava (57.5%) in Group 2 (P < 0.01). Thirty-six Group 1 patients underwent endoscopic intervention (variceal ligation, 33; sclerotherapy, 2; glue injection, 1). Endovascular intervention was performed in 30 Group 1 patients (angioplasty ± stent, 22; endovascular shunt, 8) and in 34 Group 2 patients (angioplasty ± stent, 26; endovascular shunt, 8). All 80 patients were started on anticoagulation. Variceal bleed on anticoagulation occurred in five patients in Group 1 and three patients in Group 2. One-year and 5-year survival were 94.2% and 87.5%, respectively, in Group 1 and 100% and 80%, respectively, in Group 2. CONCLUSIONS About one-tenth of BCS patients present with variceal bleed. On management with endoscopic ± endovascular therapy, followed by anticoagulation, variceal re-bleed in these patients were comparable with those in BCS patients presenting with ascites and survival was excellent at 1 and 5 years.
