Congenital absence of the portal vein (CAPV) requires liver transplantation when encephalopathy develops. However, transplantation has technical difficulties because no collateral circulation exists except for the portosystemic shunt. Ligating the shunt will cause disastrous mesenteric venous congestion. We report a 19-month-old female infant with CAPV, who had portosystemic encephalopathy and cardiac failure, and underwent living donor liver transplantation with a partial clamp technique using a vein graft. This is the first case of successful liver transplantation for CAPV with cardiac failure.
先天性门静脉缺如(CAPV)在发生肝性脑病时需要进行肝移植。然而,由于除了门体分流外不存在侧支循环,移植存在技术困难。结扎分流会导致灾难性的肠系膜静脉充血。我们报告了一名19个月大的患有CAPV的女婴,她患有门体性脑病和心力衰竭,并采用静脉移植的部分钳夹技术接受了活体供肝移植。这是首例成功为伴有心力衰竭的CAPV患者进行肝移植的病例。
