Rare liver disease study could change how doctors treat dangerous complications

NCT ID NCT07163689

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 24, 2026

Summary

This study looks at a rare liver condition called Porto-Sinusoidal Vascular Disease (PSVD), which causes high blood pressure in the liver's veins. Researchers want to see if a procedure called TIPS works as well for PSVD patients as it does for those with cirrhosis. They will compare survival and complication rates in 360 patients from French hospitals, using existing medical records.
