      EHPVO should be diagnosed prior to, or at the time of abdominal surgery.

      Controls (2:1)
      Each patient with EHPVO will be matched to 2 control patients according to
      – surgical intervention
      – center (+/- 2 years before/after the case).
      – age (+/- 10 years)
      – ASA class

      Data collection
