DOI: 10.1002/lt.25907
Abstract: While intrahepatic portosystemic shunts are usually asymptomatic and typically close by 1 to 2 years of age, extrahepatic portosystemic shunt spontaneous closure is unlikely. Congenital Extrahepatic Portosystemic Shunts (CEPS) are further classified into type 1… read more here.
