Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) results from the occlusion or flow reduction in the hepatic veins or inferior vena cava and can be treated with transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt when hepatic vein recanalization fails.1-3 Hypercoagulable patients with primary BCS are predisposed to development of new areas of thrombosis within the TIPS shunt or IVC. This case details a patient with BCS, pre-existing TIPS extending to the right atrium, and chronic retrohepatic IVC thrombosis who underwent sharp recanalization of the IVC with stenting into the TIPS stent bridging the patient until his subsequent hepatic transplantation.

Membranous obstruction of the inferior vena cava is a rare congenital anomaly that results in the primary type of Budd-Chiari syndrome. We describe the case of an 8-year-old boy initially diagnosed with intrahepatic portal hypertension, who underwent percutaneous transluminal balloon dilatation of an inferior vena cava membrane located in the suprahepatic inferior vena cava, which resulted in successful palliation of his symptoms.
