Congenital Visceral Vascular Variation Causing Gastrointestinal Hemorrhage: A Case Report
Variations in the visceral vasculature are often encountered, but rarely cause clinical symptoms. We report a 12-year-old girl with portal hypertension caused by congenital variations in visceral vessels. The clinical manifestations included gastrointestinal hemorrhage and ascites. The common hepati...
