Thrombosis is the interruption of blood flow by a clot in the blood vessels. Hepatic Vein Thrombosis, commonly known as Budd-Chiari syndrome, occurs when a blood clot forms in the hepatic veins, which are the veins that transport deoxygenated blood from the liver into the vena cava. Occurring every 1 in a million people, Hepatic Vein Thrombosis is caused by compression of a tumor on the vein or pregnancy. The symptoms of Hepatic Vein Thrombosis include enlarged liver, jaundice, and abdominal pain. Hepatic Vein Thrombosis is treated with anticoagulants and surgically implanted shunts to divert the blood flow.
