    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Surgical Innovation
    • Hepatobiliary Surgery

    Background:

    • The Sugiura procedure is a surgical technique used to manage complications of portal hypertension.
    • Traditional methods can be complex and associated with significant morbidity.
    • Evaluating modified techniques is crucial for improving patient outcomes.

    Observation:

    • This report details the first application of a modified Sugiura method in Bulgaria.
    • Two patients underwent the modified Sugiura procedure.
    • The operations were performed successfully in both cases.

    Findings:

    • The modified Sugiura technique is less traumatic than the original procedure.
    • Postoperative mortality was significantly reduced.
    • Patient survival to 7 years improved, with no reported cases of encephalopathy.
    • The operation is technically simpler than splenorectal anastomoses.

    Implications:

    • This modified technique presents a viable alternative for managing portal hypertension complications.
    • Its technical simplicity and improved safety profile make it suitable for planned and emergency interventions.
    • Wider adoption could enhance patient outcomes in Bulgaria and potentially other regions.
