Children with extrahepatic portal hypertension typically present with cavernomatous transformation of the portal vein and a poorly defined intrahepatic portal vein system on conventional imaging. With the Meso-Rex Bypass becoming the gold-standard intervention for a cure, a precise assessment of the intrahepatic portal vein system provides helpful data for deciding whether a Meso-Rex Bypass is feasible or not.

Abstract

Children with extrahepatic portal hypertension typically present with cavernomatous transformation of the portal vein and a poorly defined intrahepatic portal vein system on conventional imaging. With the Meso-Rex Bypass becoming the gold-standard intervention for a cure, a precise assessment of the intrahepatic portal vein system provides helpful data for deciding whether a Meso-Rex Bypass is feasible or not.
