in segment 6 of the liver
H:
Adult

INFO/WWW-LINKS:
Acute embolism may occure after myocardial infarction caused by mobilized
mural thrombus or other cardiac disease (e.g. diseased valves). Other causes
are atrial fibrillation, polycythaemia and left atrial myxomas. Problems associated
with prosthetic valves are thrombosis (especially at the mitral position),
paravalvular leaks, endocarditis and degenerative changes in tissue valves.
Congenital cysts of the
liver are often combined with other cystic disorders, e.g. pancreatic
cysts and/or renal cysts. Most common kind of congenital cysts are solitary
cysts - shown in the image above. These cysts may increase in size and may
cause portal hypertension.

of the superior mesenteric artery and a congenital cyst of the liver.
