Brief Summary: This study aims to compare two treatments for cirrhotic portal hypertension with acute esophagogastric variceal bleeding and hypersplenism: laparoscopic splenectomy and azygoportal disconnection (LSD) and transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS). It is a single-center, prospective, randomized controlled, superiority trial. The primary outcome is the incidence of post-procedure hepatic encephalopathy. Secondary outcomes include changes in hepatic venous pressure gradient, portal and hepatic artery hemodynamics, liver function, renal function, complete blood count, immune function, hepatic reserve capacity, serological markers of liver fibrosis, re-bleeding rate, hepatocellular carcinoma incidence, overall survival, and bleeding-free survival. The study will provide high-level evidence for optimal treatment selection in this patient population.
