Pre-interventional computed tomography (CT) shows chronic occlusion of the portal vein and splenic vein. Cavernous transformation of the portal vein is evident (CAV). Distinct portosystemic collaterals are seen, especially periesophageally (C). The asterisk marks a coil inserted in the spleen during the previous attempt. a transversal view with maximum intensity projection (5 mm) (b) coronal view with maximum intensity projection (10 mm) (c) coronal view with 3D volume rendering technique reconstruction. The presumed vascular course of the occluded portal vein and splenic vein have been added manually. SMV: superior mesenteric vein
