Article Synopsis
- Extrahepatic Portal Hypertension (EPH) is high blood pressure in the portal vein system outside the liver, often linked to conditions like pancreatitis, and can be treated effectively with new methods instead of surgery.
- A 38-year-old man with Crohn's disease developed severe complications from gallstone pancreatitis, leading to recurrent variceal bleeding, which required splenic vein stenting for treatment.
- The stenting resulted in immediate relief of the varices and no further bleeding, highlighting a successful management approach where data has been limited.
