  • Title: Venous intravasation of barium: CT findings.
    Author: Zalev AH, Warren RE, Burnstein MJ.
    Journal: J Comput Assist Tomogr; 1993; 17(5):813-5. PubMed ID: 8370841.
    Abstract:
    Portal venous barium and air intravasation occurred during an air contrast enema in a man with ulcerative colitis. Abdominal plain radiography and CT subsequently showed increased hepatic density. Computed tomography also showed colonic intramural and pericolic nodal or venous barium, increased splenic density, and pulmonary arterial barium. The patient's course was benign because little barium embolized beyond the liver into the systemic circulation.
