Imaging findings of hepatocellular carcinoma with portal vein tumor thrombosis secondary to hepatic portal vein collateral circulation: a cross-sectional study
Abstract:Background: Hepatic portal vein collateral circulation plays an important role in maintaining the perfusion of hepatic portal vein. However, at present, there is little research on collateral circulation of hepatic portal vein. Our study aims to analysis the imaging types and clinical value of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) invading and completely blocking different branches of portal vein, secondary to hepatic portal vein collateral circulation.
