Abstract
Background Abernethy malformation, namely congenital extrahepatic portosystemic shunt (CEPS) is a rare congenital anomaly of the splanchnic venous system. Abernethy malformation is often associated with liver tumors. FNH often appears in children with Abernethy Malformation.
Case Presentation we report a focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) child which finally vanished after blocking the inferior mesenteric vein and restored portal blood flow. Conclusions FNH in children with Abernethy Malformation should not be actively resected. After blood flow reconstruction, FNH may disappear.
