Ectopic varices are defined as dilated portosystemic collateral veins in locations other than the gastroesophageal region.

We diagnosed ectopic duodenal varices without gastroesophageal varices on upper GI endoscopy and extrahepatic portal venous obstruction (EHPVO) on CT angiography and managed this case.
