Hepatic Infarction Complicated with Acute Pancreatitis Precisely Diagnosed with Gadoxetate Disodium-enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging

2014 
: Pancreatitis may induce a spectrum of venous and arterial vascular complications. However, hepatic infarction complicated with acute pancreatitis seldom occurs because of the unique vascular configuration of the liver. We herein describe an extremely rare and unique case in which simultaneous portal vein and hepatic vein thrombosis were present. We precisely assessed both hepatic hemodynamics and hepatocellular function using sequential multidetector computed tomography and gadoxetate disodium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging, which may provide useful information on the pathophysiological state and diagnosis of hepatic infarction.
