Figure 1 Hypersplenism in a 76 year old man with hepatitis B virus-related cirrhosis.
A: Celiac digital subtraction arteriogram. The splenic artery is markedly dilated and tortuous. The spleen is enlarged. The right gastroepiploic artery arises from the celiac axis; B: Celiac arteriogram after coil embolization of the distal splenic artery and its primary branches. The hilar splenic arterial branches are faintly filled by collateral circulation.
