Portal Venous Disease

Portal interventions in pediatric patients present unique difficulties when compared to adult procedures. In addition, children who need a portal intervention require a different workup and clinical management. Based on these elements, the clinical decisions for the study and treatment of these pathologies are different. This review is intended to present a summary of the interventional radiologist's role in treating pediatric portal venous diseases. Focus is placed on the technical elements, patient management and procedural indications while discussing different interventions involving the portal vein, providing some recommendations supported by recent research and the authors' experience.
