Concurrent autoimmune hemolytic anemia and immune thrombocytopenic purpura in a patient with budd-chiari syndrome post-direct intrahepatic portocaval shunt: A case report
A rare liver condition known as Budd-Chiari syndrome (BSC) is characterized by hepatic vein blockage, which damages the liver. Immune-mediated hematological disorders that might exacerbate the clinical picture include immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) and autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA). In this case study, a patient with BCS who underwent a direct intrahepatic portocaval shunt (DIPS) operation developed AIHA and ITP. A 21-year-old female patient with Budd-Chiari syndrome and a straight intrahepatic portocaval shunt presents atypically in this case study. The case report details a patient's course of therapy, including diagnosis, preoperative planning, clinical testing, surgery, intensive care, and a successful recovery with appropriate postoperative care (Chandra et al., 2018).
