Abstract
The Denver shunt is a device used to treat patients with ascites, taking the build up of fluid in the peritoneal cavity and dispensing it into the bloodstream. Interventional Radiology uses this shunt on patients who have a large buildup of fluid with little or no success in other treatment methods.
