  • Title: [99mTc-MAA enrichment in the liver during a cavo-portal shunt over a recanalized umbilical vein].
    Author: Rieker O, Grünwald F, Layer G, Heidgen FJ, Menzel C, Biersack HJ.
    Journal: Nuklearmedizin; 1993 Dec; 32(6):328-31. PubMed ID: 8295832.
    Abstract:
    Lung perfusion scintigraphy in a patient suffering from superior vena cava obstruction showed distinct MAA uptake in parts of the liver due to a collateral blood flow through abdominal parietal veins and a recanalized umbilical vein. Radiation therapy of mediastinal lymphomas was followed by a rapid decrease of caval portal shunt volume.
