Abstract
Budd Chiari syndrome (BCS) is a diverse disease with regard to the site of obstruction, the predisposing thrombophilic disorders and clinical presentation across the Asia-Pacific region. The hepatic vein ostial stenosis and short segment thrombosis are common in some parts of Asia-Pacific region, while membranous obstruction of the vena cava is common in some and complete thrombosis of hepatic veins in others. Prevalence of myeloproliferative neoplasms and other thrombophilic disorders in BCS varies from region to region and with different sites of obstruction. This heterogeneity also raises several issues and dilemmas in evaluation and approach to management of a patient with BCS. The opportunity to recanalize hepatic vein in patients with hepatic vein ostial stenosis or inferior vena cava stenting or pasty among those membranous obstruction of the vena cava is a unique opportunity in the Asia-Pacific region to restore hepatic outflow closely mimicking physiology. In order to address these issues arising out of the diversity as well as the unique features in the region, the Asia Pacific Association for Study of Liver has formulated these guidelines for clinicians.

Mutations in CYP2C9 and/or VKORC1 haplotype are associated with higher bleeding complications in patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome on warfarin. Hepatol Int 2019; 13:214-221. [PMID: 30617764 DOI: 10.1007/s12072-018-9922-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2018] [Accepted: 12/18/2018] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Anticoagulation is universally recommended in Budd-Chiari syndrome [BCS]. Vitamin K epoxide reductase complex 1 (VKORC1) and CYP2C9 are involved in the metabolism of warfarin. The present study was done to assess whether these mutations are associated with the risk of bleeding in patients with BCS receiving warfarin. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients diagnosed with BCS underwent genotyping for three single nucleotide polymorphisms [SNPs]-two for the CYP2C9 and one for the VKORC1 haplotype. The patients were followed up for at least 12 months and all bleeding episodes were recorded. Patients with and without mutations were compared for bleeding complications and a crude odds ratio [crude OR] was derived for the association between bleeding and presence or absence of mutant alleles. RESULTS Eighty patients [mean (SD) age 27.47 (8.93) years, 35 male] with BCS underwent genetic testing. 37/80 (46.2%) patients had mutation of CYP2C9 and/or VKORC1; 22/80 (27.5%) had either of the mutant alleles of CYP2C9 and, similarly, 22/80 (27.5%) had the VKORC mutation. Over a median follow-up of 20 (range 12-96) months, 21/80 (26.3%) patients had bleeding complications. Patients with mutant SNPs had a higher risk of bleeding than those without [14/37 vs. 7/43, p = 0.04, crude OR (95% CI) 3.13 (1.1-8.9)]. CONCLUSION The presence of mutations in VKORC1 or CYP2C9 is associated with increased risk of bleeding in patients with BCS on warfarin. Such patients with SNPs of CY2C9 or VKORC1 haplotype should be monitored intensively while receiving warfarin.

Abstract
UNLABELLED There are limited data on clinical profile of adolescent patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS). We studied clinical, radiological, thrombophilia profile and treatment outcomes in adolescent patients with BCS. METHODS Forty-three consecutive patients of BCS with onset of symptoms during adolescence (10-19 years) were enrolled in the study. 129 randomly selected adult patients with BCS and 36 children with BCS formed the two control groups. The clinical history, physical examination, laboratory tests, thrombophilic disorders, radiological features and treatment outcomes of adolescents were compared to adults and children. RESULTS In adolescents, ascites (25/43 vs. 110/129, p = 0.0004) and thrombophilic disorders (16/43 vs. 93/129 p < 0.0001) were less frequent than adults. More adolescents (14/43) presented with hepatomegaly alone without ascites than adults (9/129, p < 0.001) or children (1/36, p = 0.005). Adolescents had lower Clichy scores [3.75 (1.2)] than adults [4.72 (1.3), p < 0.0001) or children [4.43 (1.7), p = 0.041]. JAK-2 V617F mutation was the most common thrombophilic disorder in adolescents (5/43) and more common than children (0/36, p = 0.043). Response to therapy was better in adolescents (74.4%) than children (52.8%, p = 0.038), but similar to adults (63.56%, p = 0.13). CONCLUSION During adolescence, patients with BCS present less commonly with ascites and may present with hepatomegaly alone. JAK-2 V617F mutation is the most common thrombophilic disorder during adolescence; though thrombophilic disorders are less common in adolescents than adults. Response to therapy is similar to adults, but better than children.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) is a rare disease characterized by hepatic venous outflow tract obstruction (HVOTO). METHODS Recent literature has been analyzed for this narrative review. RESULTS Primary BCS/HVOTO is a result of thrombosis. The same patient often has multiple risk factors for venous thrombosis and most have at least one. Presentation and etiology may differ between Western and certain Eastern countries. Myeloproliferative neoplasms are present in 40% of patients and are usually associated with the V617F-JAK2 mutation in myeloid cells, in particular peripheral blood granulocytes. Presentation and symptoms vary, thus this diagnosis must be considered in any patient with acute or chronic liver disease. Doppler ultrasound, computed tomography, or magnetic resonance imaging of the hepatic veins and inferior vena cava usually successfully provide noninvasive identification of the obstruction or its consequences in the collaterals of hepatic veins or the inferior vena cava. The reported life expectancy in these patients is 3 years after the first symptoms. The therapeutic strategy includes first, anticoagulation, correction of risk factors, diuretics, and prophylaxis for portal hypertension, then angioplasty for short-length venous stenosis followed by transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) and finally liver transplantation. The progression of treatment is based on the response to therapy at each step. This strategy results in a 5-year survival rate of nearly 85%. The medium-term prognosis depends upon the severity of liver disease, and the long-term outcome can be jeopardized by transformation of underlying conditions and hepatocellular carcinoma. CONCLUSION BCS/HVOTO hepatic manifestations of BCS/HVOTO can be controlled in most patients with medical or radiological interventions. Underlying disease has become the major determinant of patient outcome.
