Abstract

An intrahepatic arterioportal fistula is a rare occurrence in liver cirrhosis. Arterioportal fistulas have been said to result from congenital arteriovenous malformation, ruptured hepatic aneurysm, trauma, iatrogenic causes, liver cirrhosis, or liver tumor. We report a case of arterioportal fistula in the setting of cryptogenic cirrhosis.
