Abstract
Two patients with extrahepatic portal vein obstruction are described in whom calcification within the thrombus was identified during investigation for obstructive jaundice. Evidence from percutaneous cholangiography in one, and endoscopic cannulation of the common bile duct in the other, supported the view that the common bile duct was being partially compressed by the calcified cavernoma.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
