Default Liver Shunt Cellophane Band Method?

Well I had a consult apt with our surgeon earlier this week for the spay & liver biopsy. He also went over the procedure should there be a shunt & he would fix it while he's in there. He mentioned that he uses the cellophane band for shunts. I asked why not the Ameroid ring & he mentioned that they kink sometimes so he just uses the cellophane band method. I've read that the Ameroid constrictor is the best - is this correct or are both fine? Has anyone had the cellophane band used with success?
Thanks!
