Popis: |
A 74-year-old patient presented with hematochezia and a history of liver cirrhosis with repeated bleeding from esophageal and rectal varices. Endoscopic examination revealed multiple rectal varices with positive red color signs. Ascites, severe portosystemic thrombosis and a splenorenal shunt were diagnosed on a contrast-enhanced dynamic computed tomography examination. From a transjugular approach, we circumvented thrombosed regions by maneuvering double balloon catheters through the shunt and dilated left colic marginal vein. We managed to successfully obliterate the varices. |
