BACKGROUND: Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is recommended for treating recurrent and refractory ascites. However, determining the target portal pressure gradient (PPG) has been inconclusive. This multicentre cohort study explored the post-TIPS PPG potential range associated with improving survival.
METHODS: The study enrolled 276 patients, all of whom underwent covered TIPS for ascites treatment across four medical centers. The cumulative incidences of clinical outcomes were compared among groups categorized by potential PPG thresholds.
RESULTS: During the whole follow-up period with a medium follow-up of 21.6 (7.5, 41.6) months, 122 (44.2%) experienced liver-related death, and 73 (26.4%) patients experienced a recurrence of ascites. Multivariable analysis revealed PPG < 7 mmHg (p = 0.007) and the recurrence of ascites (p = 0.033) are independent risk factors for survival, while the PPG ≥ 11 mmHg was an independent risk factor for the recurrence of ascites (p = 0.012). Patients with ≥ 7 mmHg had a lower rate of liver-related death than patients with post-TIPS PPG < 7 mmHg (51.0% vs 66.6%, p = 0.004), while those with post-TIPS PPG ≥ 11 mmHg exhibited a higher cumulative incidence of ascites compared to those with post-TIPS PPG < 11 mmHg (44.6% vs 33.7%, p = 0.023). The robustness of the results was confirmed.
CONCLUSION: Our study highlighted the existence of an optimal post-TIPS PPG range in patients with recurrent and refractory ascites. Patients may experience improved survival and ascites control with a post-TIPS PPG of 7-11 mmHg.
