  • Title: [Late portal vein thrombosis caused by hematoma after liver transplantation].
    Author: Pruvot FR, Declerck N, Hennaux M, Mensier E, L'Hermine C, Paris JC, Ribet M.
    Journal: Gastroenterol Clin Biol; 1993; 17(6-7):495-8. PubMed ID: 8243937.
    Abstract:
    Late portal vein thrombosis of liver grafts is uncommon and is usually revealed by variceal bleeding. We herein report a case of thrombosis discovered in an adult 10 months after liver transplantation, due to stenosis of the portal vein by extrinsic compression, probably secondary to a biopsy-induced hematoma. Development of venous collateral circulation allowed for normal function of the liver graft.
