Özet

The presence of portal and systemic venous gas is traditionally regarded as an ominous radiological sign indicating a grave prognosis. With advances in imaging technology, the incidence of its detection has increased along with its association with clinically benign disorders. We present a young patient with systemic and portal venous gas after traumatic lumbar puncture.
