  		Figure 1. In this 47-year-old splenectomised woman, (a) axial thick-slab maximum-intensity projections and (b) oblique 3-dimensional volume-rendering images, obtained with 16-detector row CT, show strong and early enhancement of a dilated splenic and main portal vein, approaching the density of the aorta, during the arterial phase. Note the clear depiction of the intrahepatic portal circuit during the arterial phase. The aneurysmal arteriovenous fistula is well demonstrated in the splenic lodge.
