Gastric varices formed in a patient who had undergone a total cavopulmonary shunt operation 7 years previously. The varices were found to be due to development of collaterals from high-pressure systemic vein to low-pressure portal vein. Bleeding gastric varix can be a late complication of total cavopulmonary shunt.
一名7年前接受了全腔静脉肺动脉分流术的患者出现了胃静脉曲张。发现这些静脉曲张是由于高压体循环静脉向低压门静脉形成侧支循环所致。胃静脉曲张出血可能是全腔静脉肺动脉分流术的晚期并发症。
