Esophageal Varices Bleeding in Portal Hypertension Due to Portal Vein and Splenic Vein Obstruction [PDF]
Based on its relation to the liver sinusoid, increased pressure of portal vein can occur at three levels: presinusoid, sinusoid ,and postsinusoid. Obstruction of the presinusoid veins can be caused by extra- hepatic condition such as venous thrombosis ...
