Abstract

A 34-year-old female with Budd-Chiari syndrome presented with abdominal distention, abdominal pain and fatigue. At the time of hospitalization she exhibited portal hypertension, massive ascites in the abdomen, hepatomegaly and severe anemia. Ultrasonography revealed thrombosed hepatic veins; the caudate lobe was bigger than normal. Hepatic venography failed to visualize the hepatic veins. A diagnosis of Budd-Chiari syndrome was made. Etiological inquiry revealed only trauma, in the form of abuse of her husband. Liver transplantation was not considered because of portal hypertension. Symptomatic treatment was instituted. She was given anticoagulant therapy for four months. Symptomatic improvement was observed. Anticoagulant therapy was effective in improving the prognosis.

Özet

Budd-Chiari sendromlu 34 yaşında bir kadın hasta karın şişliği, karın ağrısı, halsizlik şikayetleri ile başvurdu. Hasta servisimize yatırıldığında portal hipertansiyon gelişmişti, batında yaygın asit, hepatomegali, ileri derecede anemi mevcuttu. Batın ultrasonografisinde hepatik venler tromboze idi; kaudat lob belirgindi. Hepatik venografide hepatik venler doldurulamadı. Bu bulgularla hastaya Budd-Chiari tanısı kondu. Etyoloji açısından sorgulandığında sadece travma (koca dayağı) mevcuttu. Hastada portal hipertansiyon geliştiğinden karaciğer transplantasyonu önerilmedi. Hastaya semptomatik tedavi başlandı. Dört ay antikogülan tedavi uygulandı. Hastanın semptomları geriledi. Bu olgu bize Budd-Chiari sendromunda antikoagülan tedavinin prognozu iyi yönde etkilediğini gösterdi
