Abstract
The Budd-chiari syndrome (BCS) is a rare vascular disease of multifactorial etiopathogenesis, represents a serious thromboembolic complication of Crohn's disease (CD), and may be the revealing mode. This condition results from obstruction of hepatic venous drainage from the hepatic venules to the terminal part of the inferior vena cava, and can be primary or secondary. Here, we report a case of a young woman with fulminant hepatitis whose etiological diagnosis revealed Crohn's disease with acute budd chiari syndrome and who was successfully treated with anticoagulants associated with biotherapy. The patient had a very good clinical evolution, after three months total recovery from the BCS. Very few cases have been published on this association.
