Ultrasound diagnosis of congenital intrahepatic portosystemic venous shunt

Abstract

There are few radiologic descriptions of intrahepatic portosystemic venous shunts and all in adults. A case is reported of a newborn where the diagnosis of shunt was made with color Doppler and where the shunt resolved spontaneously at one year of age. Proposed etiologies for intrahepatic portovenous shunts are discussed.
