Multimodality imaging in budd-chiari syndrome

Abstract

Budd-Chiari syndrome refers to the clinical picture that occurs when there is obstruction of the hepatic veins. The etiology is mixed and varied. The majority of cases result from thrombosis within the hepatic veins. However, 25% result from external compression that results in obstruction. Here, we present the multimodal imaging findings in a case of Budd-Chiari syndrome.
