Thrombosis of a large portal vein aneurysm: Treatment by thrombectomy, aneurysmorrhaphy, and portocaval shunt
Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery, 2006Co-Authors: Martin Wolff, Nico Schaefer, Joachim Schmidt, Andreas HirnerAbstract:An otherwise healthy 32-year-old woman had unspecific upper abdominal complaints. Diagnostic workup, including a helical computed tomography (CT) scan and indirect Splenoportography, revealed a giant extrahepatic portal vein aneurysm (PVA) extending to the central part of the splenic vein. On laparotomy, a thrombectomy and creation of a portocaval side-to-side shunt were performed. Thirteen days later, she was readmitted for re-thrombosis of the aneurysm. She underwent another laparotomy with thrombectomy and tapering of the portal venous wall (aneurysmorrhaphy) by vascular staplers. On followup 25 months after the operation, full relief of symptoms was noted. She was on warfarin therapy. Her portal venous system waspatent.

a digital Splenoportography more sensitive method of detecting spontaneous splenorenal shunt
Angiology, 1991Co-Authors: Nazir Farid, Ferhun Balkanci, Salih Guran, S. Senaati, Aytekin BesimAbstract:Splenoportography was performed upon 195 pediatric patients, including 137 by conventional technique and 58 by digital subtraction technique. The results obtained were compared, and it was found that the percentage of diagnosis of spontaneous splenorenal shunt was higher with digital than with conventional technique. In conclusion digital technique is a more sensitive and safer method than the conventional method.

A high incidence of spontaneous splenorenal shunting shown by digital Splenoportography.
Pediatric Radiology, 1991Co-Authors: Ferhun Balkanci, Nazir Farid, Salih Guran, S. Senaati, M. H. Atique, Aysel YüceAbstract:The technique of digital Splenoportography with thin flexible needles and small amounts of dilute contrast medium is described as one particularly suitable for use in paediatric patients. The authors report a high incidence of spontaneous splenorenal shunting revealed in their patients by this technique.
