Uroradiologic manifestations of portal hypertension.
In a retrospective review of 50 patients with known portal hypertension, uroradiologic abnormalities directly related to this entity were detected in 10 patients (20%). Unusual findings in three patients are stressed. One case of ileal conduit hemorrhage due to enterostomal varices secondary to portal hypertension, in which the imaging studies were noncontributory, is included in this discussion because of its important clinical and diagnostic implications.
