Ductus venosus agenesis with intrahepatic drainage

MedGen UID:
1863708
•Concept ID:
C5937161
•
Congenital Abnormality
HPO: HP:6000369

Definition

A form of ductus venosus agenesis in which the umbilical vein connects via the portal sinus to the portal venous system (PVS) without giving rise to the ductus venosus. In some cases an intrahepatic shunt from a portal to a hepatic vein can be detected prenatally. This variant has been reported to have a favorable prognosis. [from HPO]
