Summary

This study follows 250 adults with decompensated liver cirrhosis who are receiving a TIPS procedure—a small tube placed in the liver to reduce pressure. Researchers will collect medical data and blood samples to better understand which patients benefit most and what the risks are. The goal is to improve future patient selection and care, not to test a new treatment.
