Core Tip |
Hepatic encephalopathy is characterized by neurological dysfunction due to cirrhosis or portal-systemic shunting. The relationship between recurrent hepatic encephalopathy (HE) and spontaneous portosystemic shunts (SPSSs) has been demonstrated. Intrahepatic arterioportal fistulas (IAPFs), as an uncommon cause of portal hypertension, are rarely reported in HE. Herein, we present a case of recurrent HE secondary to a SPSS and IAPF. Endovascular embolization of the SPSS and IAPF was performed. Our case highlights the hemodynamic changes caused by SPSSs and IAPFs. Simultaneous embolization of an SPSS and IAPF should be considered as the optimal therapy for such patients |
