This workshop presents cutting-edge cases of portomesenteric venous recanalization for all indications – acute, subacute and chronic. Faculty will focus on life-threatening mesenteric ischemia, transplant-related thrombosis, cirrhotic versus noncirrhotic patients, tumor-related thrombosis, and the most complex cases of PVR after cavernous transformation to preserve transplant candidacy. Presenters will showcase the gamut of up-to-date and upcoming techniques/equipment for TIPS-PVR, trans-splenic access, thrombectomy, and stent reconstruction.
