  • Title: Pericardial varices secondary to portal hypertension demonstrated by CT.
    Author: Meyerson A, Yitta S, Dachman AH.
    Journal: J Thorac Imaging; 2006 Mar; 21(1):69-70. PubMed ID: 16538164.
    Abstract:
    Pericardial varices are rarely seen on CT and can be misinterpreted as mediastinal masses or lymph nodes. We report a case of a 38-year-old man who presented for routine liver transplant evaluation. On high-resolution computed tomography (CT), a cluster of varices was seen in the left cardiophrenic angle.
