FAQs

1

How long does a portal vein embolization take?

The procedure typically takes one to two hours. Your blood pressure and pulse are checked closely during, and after, the procedure. After the PVE is complete, the catheter is removed and a bandage is used to cover the surgical site.
2

How do you feel after portal vein embolization?

Bleeding and unintentional embolization are the most common complications and occur less than 2 in 100 patients. Some patients experience nausea and vomiting as well as fever. These symptoms can be controlled with appropriate medications.
3

What happens if portal vein is blocked?

Portal vein thrombosis is blockage or narrowing of the portal vein (the blood vessel that brings blood to the liver from the intestines) by a blood clot. Most people have no symptoms, but in some people, fluid accumulates in the abdomen, the spleen enlarges, and/or severe bleeding occurs in the esophagus.
