“…This refers to a communication between the main portal and the azygos veins. While congenital portoazygos shunts have been extensively described in certain dog breeds [ 63 ], it is rare in humans, with only a single case report describing this entity in a neonate with thoraco-abdominal duplication and absent intrahepatic portal vein [ 64 ]. Its description in association with liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension is also limited to a solitary case report.…”

The purpose of this article is to describe the various portosystemic collateral pathways pertinent to portal hypertension on multi-detector row computed tomography (MDCT) and their clinical relevance, with special emphasis on the uncommon ones. The knowledge and understanding of the various patterns of portosystemic collateral channels has important implications both for the clinician and the interventionist. MDCT with its advanced post processing capabilities can exquisitely demonstrate these vascular pathways to help in therapeutic decision making.Teaching points• Portosystemic collaterals are an important cause of bleeding and hepatic encephalopathy.• Radiologists should be familiar with the imaging findings to effectively identify them.• Pre-operative knowledge of portosystemic collaterals is essential to avoid inadvertent vascular injury.

“…Incesu et al [10] reported another adolescent case of a 15-year-old girl complaining of back pain, and diagnosed asymmetric lumbar spine duplication with spinal cord tethering secondary to a filum lipoma in the sacrum. The other cases of duplication of spine were symptomatic with neurovascular, genitourinary, or gastrointestinal abnormalities [4,9,11]; some of these cases could be regarded as a form of caudal duplication [2,6,14] and in some cases, there is a cleft in the spine rather than two formed spinal columns with two hemi-cords [3]. To the best of our knowledge, any of the reported cases of duplication of spine describes a lipomyelomeningocele as in our case.…”

Background Duplication of the spine is very rare, and this malformation is generally considered as a severe form of type I split cord malformations. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of spine duplication associated with lipomyelomeningocele. Case We report an exceptional case of 14-year-old, asymptomatic and neurologically intact girl with duplication of the spine and marked separation of bony elements at thoraco-lumbar region. One of the split thecal sacs includes a tethered spinal cord whereas other thecal sac has no visible neural content, and there is a neighbor lipomyelomeningocele located in the midline. Conclusion A surgical operation was planned to release the tethered cord and instrumentation and fusion for scoliosis; however, the operation was declined by the patient.
