  • Title: Cruveilhier-Baumgarten disease.
    Author: Snyder N, Patterson M, Hughes W.
    Journal: South Med J; 1976 Feb; 69(2):242-3. PubMed ID: 1251252.
    Abstract:
    An unusual case of portal hypertension in an asymptomatic 33-year-old man is presented. The findings of splenomgealy, esophageal and gastric varices, a patent umbilical vein with associated venous hum, and three normal liver biopsies qualify him for the diagnosis of Cruveilhier-Baumgarten disease. Possible etiologic explanations of his portal hypertension are discussed.
