Portal venous gas in a patient with Crohn's disease

C Venugopal et al. J Clin Gastroenterol. 1990 Oct.

Abstract

Portal venous gas usually occurs in the setting of an acute abdomen. Several causes for benign portal venous gas (PVG) have been reported. We describe the finding of PVG by computed tomography in a febrile patient with Crohn's disease and discuss the clinical implications of such a finding.
