摘要
We report 3 male IBD patients (2 Crohn's Disease, 1 Ulcerative Colitis) developing thrombocytopenia and splenomegaly on azathioprine treatment. All patients were diagnosed with significant portal hypertension due to histological proven nodular regenerative hyperplasia (NRH) of the liver. In two of three patients, liver function tests remained completely normal. In addition we provide a short literature review of azathioprine induced NRH covering etiology, imaging, pathology, prognosis and treatment.
