Portal Hypertension:
- Hepatofugal flow: Blood flow away from the liver.
- Diminished blood flow (Reduced Velocity: Less than 15 cm/s)
- Abnormal value of PI (PI:0.15)
- Most common cause is liver cirrhosis
- To and fro flow: Alternating hepatopetal and hepatofugal blood flow
- Stagnant, low velocity flow (velocity less than 15 cm/s)
- Lack of blood flow on color doppler due to portal vein thrombosis
- Collateral veins may develop as a compensatory mechanism to bypass the high-pressure system.
- Tortuous vascular structures
Tricuspid Regurgitation:
Pulsatile flow due to backflow of blood into the right atrium, affecting venous return, including that of the portal vein.
Bland Portal Vein Thrombosis:
- Hyperechoic thrombus within the lumen
- Hypoechoic thrombus within the lumen, usually seen in acute cases
Malignant Portal Vein Thrombosis
- Associated with HCC or other cancers
- The thrombus will have internal flow
- Hyperechoic/heterogeneous thrombus
Cavernous Transformation:
- Formation of collaterals around the portal vein, at the porta hepatis
Portal Vein Aneurysm:
Abnormal focal dilation of portal vein
Diameter: Greater than 1.5cm
