Overview

Some patients with splenic vein thrombosis may have reduced hemoglobin / hematocrit which is usually suggestive of gastrointestinal bleeding. Splenic vein thrombosis secondary to pancreatitis might have elevated levels of amylase and lipase. Some patients may have elevated liver function tests if the underlying cause is liver disease.

Laboratory findings

Some patients with splenic vein thrombosis may have reduced hgb/hct which is usually suggestive of gastrointestinal bleeding. Splenic vein thrombosis secondary to pancreatitis might have elevated levels of amylase and lipase. Some patients may have elevated liver function tests if the underlying cause is liver disease.[1][2][3][4][5]
