    Abstract:
    Abdominal trauma is a rare and poorly documented cause of portal vein thrombosis. We report here the case of a patient in whom portal vein thrombosis was diagnosed one month after an abdominal blunt trauma. Post-traumatic origin of thrombosis was confirmed by the negativity of an exhaustive aetiological investigation. Thrombosis involved portal bifurcation and right and left portal veins, but remained asymptomatic. A particularity of this case was that a total regression of the thrombosis was observed under anticoagulation therapy.
