NEW IN JVIR: Systematic Literature Review and Meta-analysis of the Cardiovascular Effects of Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt Creation for Decompensated Liver Cirrhosis

🔍 Clinical question:
To characterize the cardiovascular (CV) effects of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) creation through systematic literature review and meta-analysis.

💡 Key insight:
A systematic literature review and meta-analysis of the cardiovascular effects of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt creation from 1990 to 2025 yielded 32 articles with 4,452 patients. Right atrial pressure (RAP), cardiac output (CO), cardiac index (CI), pulmonary artery pressure (PAP), pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), and E/A ratio significantly increased immediately after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt creation. RAP and E/A ratio returned to baseline 1–6 months after TIPS creation, whereas CO, CI, PAP, and PCWP did not. The pooled incidence of symptomatic heart failure was 9% and 1-year cardiac mortality rate was 3%.

👉 Why it matters:
This comprehensive meta-analysis quantifies the specific cardiovascular changes after TIPS, confirming a non-trivial risk of heart failure and identifying diastolic dysfunction as a key predictor of post-procedural mortality to guide patient selection and management.

NEW IN JVIR: Percutaneous Radiofrequency Ablation of Perivascular versus Nonperivascular Hepatocellular Carcinomas ≤ 3 cm: Local Tumor Progression and Survival in an Inverse Probability of Treatment Weighting Analysis

🔍 Clinical Question:
To determine whether perivascular hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is associated with higher local tumor progression (LTP) and lower overall survival (OS) after percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) than nonperivascular HCC.

💡 Key Insight:
Perivascular hepatocellular carcinomas ≤ 3 cm showed higher local tumor progression after radiofrequency ablation. Perivascular tumors had lower overall survival compared with nonperivascular tumors. Rates of Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) Grade C-E adverse events were comparable between the two groups.

👉 Why it matters:
These findings confirm that perivascular tumor location is associated with higher recurrence and lower survival after RFA for small HCCs, even after rigorous statistical adjustment. Identifying perivascular location should prompt careful treatment planning and consideration of adjunctive or alternative strategies.

NEW IN JVIR: Percutaneous Cryoablation of T1b Renal Tumors: A Retrospective Evaluation of Local Tumor Control, Renal Function Preservation, Adverse Events, and Ablation Margins in 80 Patients

🔍 Clinical Question:
To investigate whether achieving an intraprocedural ice-ball margin of ≥8 mm during percutaneous cryoablation (PCA) of T1b renal cell carcinoma (RCC) results in long-term local tumor control with acceptable adverse events profile.

💡 Key Insight:
Percutaneous cryoablation achieved high composite outcomes success rates (98.8%) in T1b renal cell carcinoma, ensuring effective tumor control, renal preservation, and minimal adverse events. Ablation margins of ≥8 mm were crucial for preventing residual disease in T1b lesions, reflecting histopathologic evidence of microscopic extension beyond imaging boundaries.

👉 Why it matters:
These results affirm percutaneous cryoablation's effectiveness for T1b RCC with excellent renal function preservation and low adverse event rates—qualities that position it as a frontline option for older patients with comorbidities. Achieving ≥8 mm ice-ball margins appears essential to minimizing residual disease or local recurrence.

SIR has released a new practice guidance document on venous origin chronic pelvic pain in women, now published in JVIR.

Developed by experts from the Women’s Health and Venous Clinical Specialty Councils in collaboration with the SIR Guidelines and Statements Division, this consensus guidance provides recommendations for diagnosis, treatment, complication management, and follow-up care.

Available to read, the document supports evidence-based, consistent care for patients within the broader pelvic venous disorders spectrum.

🆕 IN : Transarterial Embolization for Refractory Adhesive Capsulitis and Related Tendinopathies: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Clinical❓: This study aimed to synthesize evidence on transarterial embolization ( ) for adhesive capsulitis and related shoulder tendinopathies to quantify pooled changes in pain, range of motion, functional scores, and safety outcomes.

🕵️Key insight: Transarterial embolization (TAE) produced large, sustained improvements in pain scores, shoulder mobility, and function for refractory adhesive capsulitis. The analysis demonstrated a favorable safety profile with 100% technical success, no severe complications, and a 2.2% moderate adverse event rate.

Why it matters 🤷: This meta-analysis provides a robust evidence base for TAE as a safe and effective minimally invasive treatment option for patients with refractory to conservative management, justifying the progression to randomized trials.
