Congenital portosystemic shunts (CPSSs) are rare developmental vascular anomalies which are classified into extrahepatic and intrahepatic malformations. Here, we report a 7-year-old girl who presented with a history of progressive dyspnea, pandigital cyanosis, and clubbing. On evaluation, she was found to have a rare combination of both type II extrahepatic and intrahepatic portosystemic shunts which were closed endovascularly in the same setting. Diagnosis of CPSS needs a very high index of clinical suspicion. Timely diagnosis with specific imaging modalities will help in deciding the treatment strategy and may prevent long-term complications. |
