ARP Case Report Nº 19: Congenital Extrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt (Abernethy Malformation)

Abstract

A 4-year-old male child presented was referred to our department with a history of an incidental finding reported on an abdominal ultrasound which was performed during the diagnostic workup of an interauricular communication. The patient was asymptomatic. For further characterization of the aforementioned finding, a contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CE-CT) with multiplanar and maximum intensity projection reformation (MIP) was performed, followed by digital subtraction angiography (DSA).
