摘要
Septic thrombophlebitis of the portal vein or one of its tributaries is referred to as pylephlebitis. It is unusual to have superior mesenteric venous thrombophlebitis. It frequently arises as a result of an infection in the portal venous system's drainage area, such as appendicitis or diverticulitis. Preoperative diagnostic imaging can help in the early diagnosis of acute phase pylephlebitis.A case of acute appendicitis complicated by an intra- abdominal abscess and superior mesenteric venous pylephlebitis is presented. Appendicectomy, abscess drainage, and antibiotic and anticoagulant treatment resulted in a full recovery. After two months, follow- up imaging revealed that the superior mesentric vein had been completely canalised.
