In this episode, we highlight Splanchnic Venous Thrombosis, a rare but significant subset of venous thromboembolism characterized by clot formation in the veins draining abdominal organs. 
Splanchnic Venous Thrombosis represents a heterogeneous group of disorders affecting the portal, mesenteric, splenic, and hepatic veins. While commonly linked to liver cirrhosis and malignancy, Splanchnic Venous Thrombosis can also occur in non-cirrhotic, non-neoplastic patients. Its clinical relevance stems from complications such as intestinal ischemia, portal hypertension, and potential underlying systemic disorders, including malignancies, nephrotic syndrome, thrombophilia, or inflammatory diseases.
