  • Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) has been recommended as a treatment method for cirrhotic portal hypertension in domestic and foreign guidelines, but there is still uncertainty in its therapeutic efficacy. More and more studies have shown that TIPS combined with collateral vessel embolization (TIPS+E) has certain advantages in the treatment of gastroesophageal variceal bleeding in liver cirrhosis. This article reviews the major studies on TIPS+E in China and globally, summarizes related recommendations in guidelines and the current status of clinical application, and proposes the issues that need to be solved, such as indication, hemodynamic criteria, and selection of materials for embolization, and large-sample multicenter randomized controlled trials are needed for further clarification.
