After excluding patients who received non-Viatorr covered stents (n = 18), underwent parallel transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt procedures (n = 1), had unsuccessful surgeries (n = 2), or had incomplete or missing follow-up data (n = 62), 192 patients were ultimately included in the study. TIPS: Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt; PSM: Propensity score matching.
