PURPOSE To evaluate differences among patients treated with serial large volume paracentesis (LVP), transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS), and peritoneovenous shunt (PVS) for non-malignant ascites. METHODS A retrospective cohort study of 192 patients treated with LVP (94), TIPS (75), or PVS (23) was performed. Electronic records were reviewed for baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes. Age differed (LVP 59.5, TIPS 58.8, PVS 65.6, p=0.003). Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis was...

This manuscript describes various techniques for fluoroscopy-guided removal of metallic ureteral stents. Fifteen patients underwent 17 fluoroscopy-guided removal procedures of 22 metallic ureteral stents. The simple or modified snare or retrieval hook technique was primarily used for antegrade access, whereas the loop snare technique was primarily used for retrograde access. Overall 64.7% of the stents were removed using the initial retrieval technique, and 82.4% were removed using an adjunct te...

PURPOSE To investigate the safety and effects of catheter-based endovascular denervation (EDN) at the celiac artery, and the abdominal aorta around celiac artery on glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). MATERIALS AND METHODS With a novel catheter system, EDN was conducted at the celiac artery along with the abdominal aorta around the celiac artery in patients with T2DM whose hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) was >7.5%. The primary outcome was HbA1c at 6-month. Other outcomes in...
