| | Conclusion.-We regard localized portal hypertension due to stenosis or obstruction of the splenic vein as one of the consequences of peripancreatic fibrosis in chronic alcoholic pancreatitis. | | | Six patients who underwent only pancreatoduodenectomy or biopsy were excluded from our study of the splenic vein because surgical specimens did not include the splenic vein as a possible source of localized portal hypertension. | | | Rignault et al16 found that 9 of 20 patients with chronic pancreatitis had splenic vein thrombosis as demonstrated by splenoportography. |

| | A congenital disorder is a medical condition that is present at birth. | | | It may be removed surgically (known as a splenectomy), and indeed often is. For example, it may be removed following abdominal injuries with rupture and hemorrhage of the spleen, or in the treatment of certain blood diseases (Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, familial jaundice, hereditary spherocytosis, etc.), or for the removal of splenic tumours or cysts. | | | Sickle-cell disease can cause a functional asplenia (or autosplenectomy) by causing infarctions of the spleen during repeated sickle-cell crises. |
