'''Banti's syndrome''' (also known as Banti's disease) is a [[chronic (medicine)|chronic]] congestive enlargement of the [[spleen]] resulting in premature destruction of the [[red blood cell]]s by the spleen.
==[[Banti's syndrome classification|Classification]]==
==Historical Perspective==
 
The term Banti's syndrome is a term that was used ''in the past'' (but isn't any longer) to describe patients with [[splenomegaly]], [[hypersplenism]] and [[portal hypertension]] without [[cirrhosis]] and without occlusion of the portal venous system.<ref>[http://www.parkhurstexchange.com/qa/A.php?q=/qa/Gastroenterology/1997-02-26.qa Parkhurst Exchange Q & A]</ref>
==[[Banti's syndrome pathophysiology|Pathophysiology]]==
==Pathophysiology==
 
The basic pathology is some kind of obstructive pathology in the [[Portal vein|portal]], [[hepatic]] or [[splenic]] vein that causes obstruction of [[venous]] blood flow from the spleen towards the heart. The cause of such obstruction may be abnormalities present at birth (congenital) of certain veins, blood clots, or various underlying disorders causing [[inflammation]] and obstruction of veins (vascular obstruction) of the liver.
==[[Banti's syndrome causes|Causes]]==
==Diagnosis==
 
Enlargement of spleen, [[ascites]], [[jaundice]], and the result of destruction of various blood cells by spleen - [[anemia]],[[leukopenia]], [[thrombocytopenia]], [[gastrointestinal tract]] bleeding - may constitute the presenting symptoms.
