“…THPCS appears to be effective in decreasing portal flow, serving its purpose of preventing hyperflow, the main component of the small-for-size syndrome, which manifests as cholestasis, coagulopathy, portal hypertension, and encephalopathy, which can lead to death. 11,13 However, it does not seem to be an absolute guarantee in preventing the syndrome, which has been identified even among patients undergoing THPCS. 11 The main complication is related to excessive flow reduction, causing the so-called portal steal syndrome, which manifests as encephalopathy and graft regeneration failure.…”

“…Some authors encourage individual case assessment and argue against the need to routinely close the shunt in all patients, 11 however, other authors recommend shunt closure to prevent encephalopathy. 13 In any case, it is necessary to take into account that there is a possibility of spontaneous shunt closure, with a study describing such an occurrence in ⅔ of patients. 13…”

“…11,12 Por eso, para evitar la lesión por elevación del flujo portal, fue desarrollada una adaptación de la técnica de la anastomosis portocava para modular el flujo en transplantes intervivos, el llamado shunt hemiportocava temporal (SHPCT), o anastomosis hemiportocava. 5,11,13 Otras técnicas que pueden ser utilizadas para modular el flujo son esplenectomía, ligadura de arteria esplénica y shunt esplenorrenal. 10,12 A pesar de esto, los beneficios del SPCT permanecen controvertidos, con trabajos mostrando resultados conflictivos.…”
