Abstract
Veno-occlusive disease of the bowel is a rare entity, and, to our knowledge, only two studies have been reported in the literature; these reports describe 11 patients with veno-occlusive disease of the small and large bowels. We describe a patient who developed veno-occlusive disease of the small bowel, whose histologic findings were somewhat different from those previously reported.
