Abstract

Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) is a rare disorder of splanchnic circulation, frequently caused by concomitant presence of local and/or systemic factors. When portal vein thrombosis complicates causative diseases, it will worsen their prognosis, and in such a case, the causative disease and PVT are treated concomitantly. Despite the fact that PVT frequently complicates liver cirrhosis, intraabdominal malignancies, and some hematological diseases, after all causes are excluded, one can define idiopathic portal vein thrombosis. In this study we have described the case of idiopathic chronical portal vein thrombosis.
