Beyond the Rib Cage: Unraveling Abernethy Syndrome As a Rare Cause of Cyanosis
Curēus(2024)
摘要
Abernethy syndrome is a rare congenital malformation stemming from a portosystemic shunt. Diagnosis proves challenging due to nonspecific clinical symptoms, with presentation varying based on age and disease severity. Consequences include hepatic, cardiovascular, renal, gastrointestinal, and neurological complications, and growth retardation. We report the case of a child presenting with perioral and digital cyanosis, observed in early childhood. Clinical examination revealed low saturation, telangiectasias, digital clubbing, and collateral venous circulation in the thorax. Imaging confirmed the diagnosis of Abernethy syndrome.
