  • Title: [Intrahepatic portocaval shunt: review of the literature, apropos of 1 case].
    Author: Villar F, Goria O, Hervé S, Lestrat JP, Perrot S, Scotté M.
    Journal: Gastroenterol Clin Biol; 2000 May; 24(5):582-4. PubMed ID: 10891751.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of portal-hepatic shunt which was detected fortuitously by ultrasonography in a 66-year-old patient. This abnormality, mainly described in cirrhotic liver and rarely in healthy liver, is usually revealed by hepatic encephalopathy or glycoregulation disorders. We propose a diagnostic and therapeutic approach based on a review of the literature.
