Abstract
Among numerous variations of communications between the portal and systemic venous circulations, intrahepatic shunts between portal and systemic veins have seldom been described [1 , 2]. Recently we encountered an intrahepatic portosystemic venous shunt directly connecting the right portal vein to the inferior portion of the vena cava. We describe our case and discuss 14 other previously published cases [110].
