ABSTRACT
Septic thrombophlebitis of the portal vein or one of its tributaries is referred to as pylephlebitis. It is unusual to have superior mesenteric venous thrombophlebitis. It frequently arises as a result of an infection in the portal venous system's drainage area, such as appendicitis or diverticulitis. Preoperative diagnostic imaging can help in the early diagnosis of acute phase pylephlebitis. A case of acute appendicitis complicated by an intra-abdominal abscess and superior mesenteric venous pylephlebitis is presented. Appendicectomy, abscess drainage, and antibiotic and anticoagulant treatment resulted in a full recovery. After two months, follow-up imaging revealed that the superior mesentric vein had been completely canalised.
