Role of Computed tomography in predicting prognosis of Hepatic portal venous gas.
International Journal of Surgery Case Reports(2017)
Abstract
•When hepatic portal venous gas is diagnosed on computed tomography, the first etiology that radiologist should look for is the intestinal necrosis.•The association of hepatic portal venous gas and pneumatosis intestinalis is highly suggestive of acute mesenteric ischemia.•Abundance of hepatic portal venous gas on CT is not correlated with prognosis.
