Abstract

Interventional recanalization is an effective treatment option for postoperative portal vein occlusion. A transhepatic or transsplenic approach is preferred, whereas a percutaneous transmesenteric route enables antegrade cannulation. Here, we present a case of successful percutaneous transmesenteric recanalization in a patient with a postoperative portal vein graft occlusion.
