Abstract
Objective: Rare co-existance of disease or pathology. Background: Portal vein thrombosis is an unusual clinical condition due to multiple etiological and morbidity factors. In some cases, Portal vein thrombosis remains undiagnosed and discovered incidentally during aregular check up for a known cause. Case Report: we report a rare case of portal vein thrombosis associated with acute pancreatitis of 58-year-old man. Conclusions: Although vascular complications such as Portal vein thrombosis after pancreatitis are exceptional. It should be expected in any patient with pancreatitis. These complications, if diagnosed and treated early, will significantly reduce morbidity and mortality.
