Figure 2 Double C-arm digital subtraction angiography (DSA) guidance for portal vein (PV) puncture. (A) Angiography via a marked pigtail catheter placed in the PV to assess the puncture site. (B, C) The front and side PV positions are compared in detail using double C-arm DSA, and the most appropriate puncture point is determined. (D) After transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt placement, angiography reveals that the left and right branches of the PV and shunt channels are unobstructed.
