Dynamic studies on portal haemodynamics by scintiphotosplenoportography: flow patterns of portal circulation.
Scintiphotosplenoportography (SSP) was performed in 190 instances in 161 patients. No significant complications, such as severe pain or splenic haemorrhage, were encountered in any of the patients studied. Flow patterns of SSP were classified into nine groups according to the direction of collateral flow. Hepatopetal collateral flow was frequently observed in pancreatic cancer. In portal hypert...
متن کاملPortal circulation and portal hypertension.
During the last 25 years, there have been important developments in visualising the portal vein, in examining its contents, and in measuring the pressure of blood flowing within it. Radiologists have set the scene and now is the time of the scanner. These technical advances have been applied to the diagnosis and treatment of patients with portal hypertension, and many ingenious surgical techniq...
متن کاملStudies of iron transport in portal and systemic circulation.
T HE STUDY of iron absorption in man is hampered by the fact that the amount of iron which is retained in the intestinal mucosa and in the liver during the absorptive process is not known. Technics using whole body counters and stool collections give little or no information about the internal distribution of absorbed iron, except by use of iron52 and the Anger positron camera.’ A technic which...
متن کاملThe circulation in portal hypertension.
While increased resistance to portal blood flow is a central feature of portal hypertension, the varied clinical presentations of this syndrome and their relation to the underlying divergent splanchnic hemodynamic patterns remain puzzling. Some patients present with massive ascites, repeated hemorrhage from ruptured esopha-geal varcies, and severe hypersplenism, whereas others with equivalent o...
متن کاملMetabolic considerations of the portal circulation
In the last 20 years, understanding has evolved about what has become known as the 'hepatotrophic' concept. The hepatotrophic hypothesis holds that there are specific substances in the portal venous blood, not found in equal concentration in other kinds of blood, which are important for the maintenance of normal hepatic morphology, function, and the capacity for regeneration (Starzl & Terblanch...
