Case ReportsOpen Cardiac Surgery in a Patient With Chronic Budd-Chiari Syndrome.
Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) is a rare congestive hepatopathy arising from hepatic venous outflow obstruction. The clinical presentation of BCS varies depending on the presence of collateral veins. ⋯ Mitral valve replacement and tricuspid valvuloplasty were performed uneventfully, and the patient then was admitted to the intensive care unit. Patients with primary BCS need to be evaluated rigorously preoperatively and intraoperatively for collateral flow to establish cardiopulmonary bypass.
