Septic thrombosis of the portal vein is a rare and highly lethal complication that occurs in patients as a complication of abdominal surgical pathology, mainly in cases of acute appendicitis and complicated diverticular disease. The clinical manifestations of the condition are bizarre making the diagnosis difficult and having therefore late intervention, favoring the rates of complications and adverse outcomes. The diagnostic approach focuses on the clinical picture and imaging techniques. A case of septic portal thrombosis secondary to cecal appendix dependent pathology manifested as septic shock, is presented. (Acta Med Colomb 2016; 41: 148-150).

Palavras-chave : venous thrombosis; portal vein and septic shock.
