"for the typical case of right-hepatic-vein to right-portal-vein branch stent, the TIPS puncture needle is rotated anteriorly and advanced inferiorly through the liver parenchyma to the anticipated location of the portal vein branch"
"portal venogram is performed with contrast injected through the TIPS puncture needle to confirm portal vein cannulation"
