Abstract
Beyond 2 years after TIPS creation, patency rates gradually decrease, mortality rates continue to increase, and the chance of recurrent ascites or bleeding remains present. Together, these findings suggest that continued clinical follow-up beyond 2 years is necessary in patients with a TIPS created with an ePTFE-covered stent graft.
