Aortic aneurysm presenting as Budd Chiari syndrome.
Budd Chiari Syndrome is the eponymic designation of symptomatic post sinusoidal venous obstruction, whether or not this is associated with hepatic vein occlusion or vena caval obstruction. Dutta and associates (1) classified the syndrome into two distinct types. Type I involves obstruction to the hepatic veins while Type II pertains to an obstruction in the inferior vena cava above the entry of hepatic veins. We report a case of thoraco-abdominal aortic aneurysm presenting as Type II Budd Chiari Syndrome.
