title: Budd-Chiari syndrome in a child with post-traumatic obstruction of the inferior vena cava.
abstract: An obstruction of the suprahepatic inferior vena cava was diagnosed by using ultrasound combined with Doppler flow analysis. Complete noninvasive diagnosis could only be done by adding the Doppler flow analysis to the displayed morphological information. After surgery complete morphological and functional relief were achieved.
