Portal Vein Thrombosis in non cirrhotic patients
background: Extrahepatic portal vein thrombosis (EPVT) is an important cause of noncirrhotic portal hypertension throughout the globe. Aim: To provide an update on recent advances in the aetiology and management of acute and chronic non-cirrhotic nonmalignant EPVT. method: A Pubmed search was performed to identify relevant literature using search terms including ‘portal vein thrombosis’, ‘varic...
متن کاملThrombophilic conditions in non-cirrhotic portal vein thrombosis.
OBJECTIVE To study the prevalence of thrombophilic conditions in patients with acute and chronic portal vein thrombosis (PVT) and to compare it with those in patients suffering from deep vein thrombosis (DVT) after lower limb arthroplasty and in healthy subjects. METHODS Twenty-six patients with spontaneous PVT (20 chronic, 6 acute) with normal liver function and not receiving anticoagulants ...
متن کاملAnticoagulation in a cirrhotic patient with acute portal vein thrombosis unrelated to malignancy. A case report.
A 46-year old man, with the antecedent of lung abscesses in 2003, was diagnosed with alcoholic cirrhosis in 2006, when he developed ascites. In October 2008, he was admitted to hospital again with ascites (ASAG 1.74). Doppler ultrasound revealed extrahepatic and intrahepatic portal vein thrombosis, with patent splenic vein and no collateral vessels nor portal cavernomatosis. It showed also enla...
متن کاملMacrovascular Malignant Portal Vein Thrombosis in Cirrhotic Patients with HCC
Methods: The diagnosis of HCC in cirrhotic patients was based on the EASL guidelines. On contrast-enhanced CT scans, MMPVT was identified by the presence of a low-attenuation intra-luminal filling defect. Intrathrombus vascularity, observed in the arterial phase of imaging studies after the administration of contrast, has been reported to be a sign that is specific for MMPVT on CT [3]. MMPVT wa...
متن کاملDeficiency of natural anticoagulant proteins C, S, and antithrombin in portal vein thrombosis: a secondary phenomenon?
BACKGROUND Hereditary deficiencies of natural anticoagulant proteins are implicated in the pathogenesis of portal vein thrombosis (PVT). Secondary deficiencies of these proteins have also been reported in PVT, making interpretation of concentrations difficult. AIMS To characterise the coagulation profiles in adult patients with PVT and to investigate the possible mechanisms of natural anticoa...
