Overview
Medical therapy for splenic vein thrombosis include anti coagulation to maintain INR between 2 to 3. The goal of anticoagulation is to prevent extension of the clot and to allow for recanalization so that intestinal infarction and portal hypertension do not develop.
- The mainstay of therapy in splenic vein thrombosis with gastric varices is sclerotherapy and gastric banding

- Correction of the causal factors
- Prevention of thrombosis extension
- Achievement of splenic vein patency
- Management of complications related to pancreatitis
- NOTE (1):Initiate anticoagulation with heparin for 3-4 weeks then start oral vitamin K antagonist(e.g. warfarin) to maintain INR between 2 to 3.
- Improves re canalization rates
- Decrease development of gastric varices and complications associated with varices
- 2.1 Chronic splenic vein thrombosis
- 2.1.1 Chronic splenic vein thrombosis with hypercoagulable state or previous history of vascular disease
- 2.1.1.1 Long term anticoagulation
- Preferred regimen: Warfarin 2-5 mg PO q24h
- 2.1.1.2 Treatment ofGastric varices
- 2.1.1.1 Long term anticoagulation
- 2.1.2. Chronic splenic vein thrombosis without hypercoagulable state or previous history of vascular disease
- 2.1.1 Chronic splenic vein thrombosis with hypercoagulable state or previous history of vascular disease
- NOTE: Chronic anticoagulation is generally not recommended
- 2.1.2.1 Treatment of gastric varices
- 2.2 Acute splenic vein thrombosis
- 2.1 Anticoagulant therapy
- 2.1.1 Acute splenic vein thrombosis with hypercoagulable state
- Preferred regimen: Warfarin 2-5 mg PO q24h for long term
- 2.2.2 Acute splenic vein thrombosis without hypercoagulable state
