Abstract

Regional portal hypertension due to splenic vein thrombosis has been described as a cause of bleeding from the upper gastrointestinal tract. Although there have been several reports, it occurs relatively infrequently. The cause, method of determining a diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of regional portal hypertension differ from other types of portal hypertension. Patients with this disease usually have a normal liver and normal pressure in the portal vein. Drainage of splenic blood is impaired, creating venous collaterals.
