Venous aneurysms have been found and described in the popliteal, jugular, and saphenous veins, but occur only rarely in other veins. Portal vein aneurysms represent less than 3% of all venous aneurysms.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib1"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> This finding has been increasingly described in recent years probably because radiologic imaging exams are more available in clinical practice. Two forms, congenital and acquired, have been described. Acquired aneurysms are more frequent and associated commonly with hepatic cirrhosis and portal hypertension.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib2"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a></p><p id="para20" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In this report, we present a case of a patient with an asymptomatic portal vein aneurysm located at the truncus of the portal vein that was incidentally detected during an ultrasonography examination for dyspepsia and was treated conservatively.</p></span><span id="cesec20" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="cestitle20">CLINICAL CASE</span><p id="para30" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">A 32-year-old woman who had a 7-year history of lumbar pain was investigated with abdominal ultrasonography and laboratorial tests. Imaging resulted in an incidental diagnosis of a venous dilation in the hepatic hilus. Subsequent abdominal scanning and abdominal magnetic resonance imaging tests confirmed the hypothesis of a portal vein aneurysm.</p><p id="para40" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The 5-cm diameter lesion was located in the hepatic hilus (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#fig1">Figures 1, 2</a>), with a saccular configuration located at the truncus of the portal vein, which was significantly enhanced in the arterial phase at abdomen tomography and showed no thrombus inside. The intrahepatic branches of the portal vein and the mesenteric as well as the splenic vein were normal in caliber. The liver parenchyma was homogeneous, and the size and contours of the organ were normal. There was no portal caverna, nor were there other dilated veins in the hepatic hilum or beside the stomach.</p><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig1"></elsevierMultimedia><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig2"></elsevierMultimedia><p id="para50" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The spleen was of normal size without any signs of portal hypertension. An upper gastrointestinal endoscopy was done and proved normal, with no esophageal varices. The patient’s physical examination revealed no alterations, showing a flaccid abdomen, no pain, and the absence of any palpable mass.</p><p id="para60" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Her laboratory tests proved normal, showing no renal function alteration and a normal hemogram, without anemia or thrombocytopenia. There were no alterations in liver function, with normal bilirubin, albumin, and prothrombin time. The transaminases and canalicular enzymes was also normal, showing no hepatic injury or cholestasis.</p><p id="para70" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The patient had no history of other disease or of previous surgery. She has remained asymptomatic for 7 years, and her periodic imaging tests showed no alteration in the venous dilation of the portal vein (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#fig1">Figures 1-5</a>), which has remained the same size (5 cm) in all scanning and magnetic resonance imaging that we did.</p><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig3"></elsevierMultimedia><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig5"></elsevierMultimedia></span><span id="cesec30" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="cestitle30">DISCUSSION</span><p id="para80" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Portal vein aneurysm (PVA) is considered a rarity, with only approximately 70 cases described in the literature.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib2"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> Barzilai and Kleckner were the first to report a portal vein aneurysm, in 1956. The authors described the necropsy of a cirrhotic patient with a portal vein aneurysm and thrombus that ruptured into the biliary system.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib3"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a> Gastrointestinal bleeding, which required urgent surgical exploration, was characteristic of the form of a portal vein aneurysm typically seen before the 1980s. Since then, pursuant to the new imaging modes such as ultrasonography, computed tomography, nuclear magnetic resonance, and arteriography that have become common in clinical practice, the number of diagnosed cases has increased.</p><p id="para90" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Portal vein aneurysms can be diagnosed when the vein shows dimensions greater than those considered normal and especially when it displays fusiform or saccular configurations.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib4"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> The normal size of the portal vein has been studied by several authors. Reynolds describes the portal vein as having an average diameter of 1.2 cm, which may increase in cirrhotic patients.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib5"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a> In an ultrasonographic study of the portal vein, Doust and Pearce found that the maximum anterior-posterior diameter never exceeded 1.5 cm in normal patients, and 1.9 cm in cirrhotic patients.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib6"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a></p><p id="para100" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The histological examination of venous aneurysms reveals a decrease in the number and size of the elastic and muscle fibers of the vein’s wall and fragmentation of the internal elastic layer, with replacement by fibrous connective tissue.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib7"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a></p><p id="para110" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The most common location is at the confluence of the splenic and upper mesenteric veins, followed by the portal vein and its ramifications.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib8"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span></a></p><p id="para120" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The etiology of portal vein aneurysms is controversial. Its congenital origin is suggested based on the discovery of variations in the embryologic development of the portal vein, as well as on reports of such aneurysms in youths without hepatic disease, in patients with multiple vascular malformations,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib9"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span></a> and in fetuses.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib10"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">10</span></a> The origin of acquired portal vein aneurysms is more commonly secondary to cirrhosis and other hepatic diseases. Pancreatitis can be included as an extrahepatic cause. It is believed that the increase in intraluminal pressure observed in portal hypertension may lead to dilation of the relatively thin wall of the portal vein.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib4"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> However, the explanation for the significant disproportion between the incidence of portal hypertension and portal vein aneurysms suggests that there must be another associated cause.</p><p id="para130" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In the great majority of cases, patients are clinically asymptomatic. A few display abdominal pain due to compression of adjacent structures, jaundice by compression of the biliary ducts, or gastrointestinal bleeding due to rupture of the biliary system.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib11"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">11</span></a></p><p id="para140" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The treatment of a portal vein aneurysm depends basically on the patient’s initial clinical symptoms and on the presence or absence of associated portal hypertension. Should symptoms appear or the aneurysm increase during observation, surgical treatment is recommended.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib13"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">13</span></a> In the absence of portal hypertension, an aneurysmography for the fusiform variants, or the resection of the aneurysm in cases of saccular dilation should be preferred.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib14"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">14</span></a> In the presence of portal hypertension, the direct approach to the aneurysm is avoided due to the high risk of bleeding. Because a portal vein aneurysm can reduce portal pressure, decompression (derivation) surgeries may prevent the progression of aneurysmatic dilation, thus making them the preferred technique.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib14"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">14</span></a></p><p id="para150" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In most of cases of disease-related forms of portal vein aneurysm, the patients are symptom-free, and there is no need for surgical procedures; therefore, as is suggested by others authors,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib12"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">12</span></a> careful monitoring is the best treatment for such patients.</p></span></span>" "textoCompletoSecciones" => array:1 [ "secciones" => array:4 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "cesec10" "titulo" => "INTRODUCTION" ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "cesec20" "titulo" => "CLINICAL CASE" ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "cesec30" "titulo" => "DISCUSSION" ] 3 => array:1 [ "titulo" => "REFERENCES" ] ] ] "pdfFichero" => "main.pdf" "tienePdf" => true "multimedia" => array:4 [ 0 => array:7 [ "identificador" => "fig1" "etiqueta" => "Figure 1" "tipo" => "MULTIMEDIAFIGURA" "mostrarFloat" => true "mostrarDisplay" => false "figura" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "imagen" => "gr1.jpeg" "Alto" => 758 "Ancho" => 993 "Tamanyo" => 77909 ] ] "descripcion" => array:1 [ "en" => "<p id="spara10" class="elsevierStyleSimplePara elsevierViewall">Computed tomography showing a portal vein dilation measuring 50 mm in diameter in the hepatic hilus.
