| Core Tip |
Inferior vena cava anomalies may induce non-cirrhotic portal hypertension by increasing portal venous inflow via abnormal hemodynamics, leading to variceal bleeding. Diagnosis requires exclusion of cirrhosis, supported by patent hepatic veins and liver biopsy showing obliterative portal venopathy. Splenomegaly/pancytopenia are not obligatory. Endoscopic therapy effectively controls bleeding, but long-term monitoring is essential. |
