Percutaneous portal venography.
Portal venography by percutaneous injection of the spleen was first performed in dogs (Abeatici and Campi, 195I) and the method was later successfully applied in man (Leger, 1951; Boulvin et al., 195I; Campi and Abeatici, I952). In the last few years the method has been routinely used at a number of centres in the British Isles. Atkinson, Barnett, Sherlock and Steiner (I955) have described abou...
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 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...
متن کاملLiver Chirrhosis – Ultrasound Aspects of Portal Circulation
Doppler ultrasound is a non-invasive method for assessing vascular port system. The aim is to study the changes in structure of the liver with the portal flow in patients with cirrhosis. Evolution of liver cirrhosis with portal hypertension makes the essential changes of portal vein. One of the objectives of the study was the investigation of the Doppler axis spleno-portal hemodynamics, evaluat...
