• Abdominal Pain

  BACKGROUND/AIMS: Hepatic vein thrombosis is thought to be manifested by ascites, abdominal pain, and hepatomegaly, with a uniformly poor prognosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  The syndrome classically presents with abdominal pain, fluid in the abdomen (ascites) and liver enlargement (hepatomegaly).The syndrome can present all of a sudden or gradually. [veindirectory.org]

  BACKGROUND/AIMS: Hepatic vein thrombosis is thought to be manifested by ascites, abdominal pain, and hepatomegaly, with a uniformly poor prognosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  #4 I'm sure you've figured this out but clinically, you have no hepatomegaly with portal vein thrombosis vs hepatomegaly with hepatic vein thrombosis #5 I did a question on Uworld today on that same concept.....in case you haven't seen the question its [forums.studentdoctor.net]

• Jaundice

  We report a 24-year-old Japanese female hospitalized with jaundice and ascites. She exhibited hepatosplenomegaly, severe liver dysfunction, and slight polycythemia with an increase in serum levels of beta-thromboglobin and platelet factor 4. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Symptoms include: Abdominal swelling or stretching due to fluid in the abdomen Pain in the right upper abdomen Vomiting blood Yellowing of the skin (jaundice) Treatment varies, depending on the cause of the blockage. [nlm.nih.gov]

• Cutaneous Manifestation

  This cutaneous manifestation of the anticardiolipin syndrome has not been described before, though its histological appearances resemble those of previously reported cutaneous complications, such as chronic ulceration, livedo reticularis and distal cutaneous [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Provides all the necessary tools to make a comprehensive diagnostic workup including data from ancillary techniques and molecular findings whenever appropriate. [books.google.com]

As mentioned earlier, another important feature of the laboratory workup is the detection of underlying prothrombotic factors. A thorough workup should be undertaken directed at exploring multiple prothrombotic risk factors. [journals.sagepub.com]

• Entamoeba Histolytica

  Abstract The most common extraintestinal complication of Entamoeba histolytica is amebic liver abscess (ALA). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Both patients had a marked clinical and radiological improvement following the t-PA treatment and remain well over 2 years and 6 years after the treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Symptoms include: Abdominal swelling or stretching due to fluid in the abdomen Pain in the right upper abdomen Vomiting blood Yellowing of the skin (jaundice) Treatment varies, depending on the cause of the blockage. [nlm.nih.gov]

In asymptomatic patients, prognosis at 3 years seems to be good, and surgical therapy may not be required. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

What is prognosis of patients with hepatic vein thrombosis? If the individual has minimal symptoms and the liver is functioning well, the majority of patients survive for at least 10 years after the diagnosis. [veindirectory.org]

Prognosis Factors associated with a good prognosis include younger age at diagnosis, absence or a small amount of ascites, and a low serum creatinine level. [patient.info]

The etiology is often idiopathic but may involve conditions that increase thrombogenic tendencies. Oral contraceptives are known to increase the risk of a number of thrombotic conditions and have been associated with the Budd-Chiari syndrome. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

It has multiple etiologies and a variety of clinical consequences. [unboundmedicine.com]

Though the mechanism was not documented in this patient, the hypercoagulability associated with inflammatory bowel disease may have played an etiologic role (1,2). [journals.lww.com]

Hepatic vein obstruction prevents blood from flowing out of the liver and back to the heart. This blockage can cause liver damage. [nlm.nih.gov]

When the hepatic vein is obstructed, blood flow from the liver to the heart is prevented. This situation is very dangerous as it can lead to the liver being damaged. [buddchiarisyndrome.org]
