Portal vein thrombosis after acute pancreatitis: diagnostic confirmation with computed tomography during arterial portography
Abstract
Portal vein thrombosis is a rare complication of pancreatic inflammatory disease. Usually, the radiologic diagnosis is made either by ultrasonography, contrast-enhanced CT or angiography. Moreover, MRI seems a very promising method. CT during arterial portography (CTAP) focused on portal system proved to have a place in the evaluation of portal vein thrombosis in a particular case.
