“…A similar problem in a patient with membranous obstruction of the inferior vena cava has been the focus of an earlier publication (Datta et al, 1973). The authors feel that haemodynamic and radiological investigations are more useful than liver biopsies in the diagnosis of Budd-Chiari syndrome caused by inferior vena caval disease.…”

Summary Alveolar hydatid disease in man is the intermediate stage in the life cycle of the tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. This is a rare disease restricted to very few areas of the world. The occurrence of this disease in India is now described for (so far as the authors are aware) the first time. Some unusual features of the disease are highlighted in this patient. The hepatic lesion had infiltrated into the right atrial wall resembling an atrial tumour. The ostium of the inferior vena cava was occluded, causing Budd-Chiari syndrome. The radiological and haemodynamic study of the hepatic outflow tract in this disease are documented.

Diagnostic value of combined transhepatic venography and inferior vena cavography in chronic Budd-Chiari syndrome

In a series of 19 patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome, transhepatic venography and inferior vena cavography were used to localize the site of hepatic outflow obstruction. Classification into two types was made on the basis of the site of obstruction. Four cases were grouped as type I, in which obstruction was localized in the hepatic vein alone, and the inferior vena cava (IVC) was patent. Fifteen cases were of type II, in which there was a well-defined obstruction in the intrahepatic portion of the IVC or ostium of a hepatic vein. This study highlights the frequent occurrence of IVC obstruction as a cause of chronic Budd-Chiari syndrome in northern India and the utility of transhepatic venography in its diagnosis.
