| Abstrakt: | The therapeutic options in portal vein thrombosis cases of young age and low weight, as in this case, are limited. Interventional radiologists also have minimal experience in pediatric patients. There are no reported cases anywhere worldwide, especially in this age group. However, we think that balloon angioplasty can be safely applied in cases in which esophageal variceal bleeding cannot be controlled using traditional treatment. (© 2022 The Author(s).
