title: Indolent evolution of an episode of acute gastroenteritis complicated with portal pneumatosis.
abstract: The discovery of gas in the portal system related to indolent clinical settings has increased in recent years due to a growth in the performance of imaging tests. We report the first case of spontaneous resolution of portal pneumatosis due to acute gastroenteritis described in the literature.
