Early urologic complications after pediatric renal transplant: a single-center experience.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is used in the management of refractory ascites (RA) and variceal bleeds. Little data exist on TIPS safety, efficacy, and survival after liver transplantation (LT). METHODS:We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent TIPS placement aft...
