Abstract

   A clinical case of the development of portopulmonary hypertension in a child after splenorenal anastomosis is presented. The surgical intervention was performed to correct the congenital malformation — cavernous transformation of the portal vein, which led to portal hypertension and varicose veins of the esophagus and stomach. In the long-term postoperative period, pulmonary arterial hypertension, hypersplenism with bilinear cytopenia, and moderate liver failure developed. Combined therapy provided a temporary improvement of the patient status, therefore, during subsequent surgery, the size of the anastomosis was changed. This led to a sustained decrease in pulmonary artery blood pressure and clinical improvement in the boy’s condition.
