Radiological findings in a case of multiple focal nodular hyperplasia associated with portal vein atresia and portopulmonary hypertension.
We present here the radiological findings of a rare case of multiple focal nodular hyperplasia that was associated with portal vein atresia and portopulmonary hypertension in a young woman. This case illustrates and supports the pathophysiological hypotheses that were previously proposed for the coexistence of these three abnormalities.
