Abstract:We report a patient with segmental portal hypertension secondary to a retroperitoneal tuberculous abscess. The patient was admitted to the hospital because of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Gastric varices were the only lesion found at endoscopy. At laparotomy a retroperitoneal abscess was found as the etiology of splenic vein thrombosis. We emphasize the low frequency of this finding and its resolution after splenectomy and antituberculous drugs.
