Core Tip |
Portal vein aneurysm (PVA) can be a congenital or acquired vascular malformation but in most cases is asymptomatic; as such, it remains underdiagnosed. We report on the features of PVA detected by ultrasonography, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging in three asymptomatic patients. Only one of our patients had a known predisposing factor (i.e., liver cirrhosis). Throughout the surveillance period, our patients remained asymptomatic, with no dimensional changes in their PVAs. In reporting this case study, we highlight the need for PVA recognition and instituting a personalized management approach that takes into consideration factors predisposing to complications of this condition. |
