Percutaneous Transhepatic AngioJet-assisted Mechanical Thrombectomy for the Treatment of Post-Transplant Portal Vein Thrombosis: A Case Report
ANNALS OF VASCULAR SURGERY(2022)
摘要
Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) is an uncommon but serious complication after liver transplantation (LT). Treatments for PVT include thrombolysis, surgical treatment or percutaneous intervention. We here report a case of PVT after LT successfully treated by an AngioJet device using the percutaneous transhepatic approach. A 36-year-old male presented with substantial thrombosis of the portal vein/superior mesenteric vein 2 years after a liver transplant. He was managed with an Angiojet thrombectomy and subsequent stent placement. This approach may be a safe and effective treatment for PVT in post-orthotopic LT patients.
