In patients with coagulopathy, ascites, post-transplantation, and hypervascular tumors, biopsy is associated with increased risk of adverse events (AEs). Transjugular liver biopsy (TJLB) is recommended in these conditions but is expensive and unavailable at many centers. Plugged liver biopsy (PLB) provides an alternate diagnostic modality in these high-risk cases.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Purpose<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>To analyze the pooled diagnostic outcome and safety of PLB in high-risk cases.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Material and Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A literature search of various databases from January 1990 to July 2022 was conducted for studies evaluating the outcome of PLB in high-risk cases. The primary outcomes were pooled sample adequacy and AEs.

The pooled proportion of sample adequacy was 98.9% (95% confidence interval [CI]=98.2\u201399.6). Severe AEs, major bleeding, and minor AEs were seen in 0.7% (95% CI=0.1\u20131.3), 0.4% (95% CI=0.1\u20130.8), and 11.5% (95% CI=2.4\u201320.6) of the patients. There was only one reported mortality, giving a pooled incidence of 0.0002% (95% CI=0.0\u20130.0038). Compared to TJLB (5 studies, n\u2009=\u2009336), there was no difference in either sample adequacy (odds ratio [OR]=2.34, 95% CI=0.83\u20136.58) or risk of serious AEs (OR=0.47, 95%
