Focal sparing of fatty liver in segment II associated with aberrant left gastric vein

N Terayama et al. Br J Radiol. 2004 Feb.

Abstract

We present a patient with aberrant left gastric vein (LGV) that directly enters the posterior edge of segment II in the liver. The corresponding area was focally spared of fatty liver. We consider that this aberrant LGV contributed to the cause of focal sparing. This is the first report of the use of helical CT and Doppler ultrasound to depict the aberrant LGV that directly enters the liver.
