Transjugular coil embolization of an intrahepatic portosystemic shunt

Fluoroscopy of a 1 year old Bearded Collie's procedure, called transjugular coil embolization of an intrahepatic portosystemic shunt. We access the abnormal vessel via the jugular vein using catheters and guide wires, then inject both the vena cava and shunt vessel with radiographic contrast. This allows for measurements of the vena cava for the vascular stent, which will hold the coils in place within the shunt vessel. The stent is then deployed and coils are inserted on the far side of the stent, within the shunt vessel. These coils then increase the pressure in the shunt vessel, redirecting blood instead into the liver itself as would normally occur.
