Abstract:Vesical varices secondary to portal hypertension are extremely rare cause of hematuria with only a few cases reported to date. We report a case of portal vesiculopathy in a patient of hepatitis B virus-related chronic liver disease presenting with gross hematuria, successfully treated with percutaneous antegrade transvenous obliteration using n-butyl cyanoacrylate glue and Amplatzer vascular plug.
