Abstract:
While the result estimation of the distal splenorenal anastomosis formation operation, done in 12 patients according to the W. D. Warren method and in another 12 patients--according to the method, modified by K. Inokuchi, it was established that the hepatic portal perfusion loss causes compensational enhancement of blood flow in a. hepatica, including while the standard method application--by 22% and the modified one--by 8%. Doing the splenorenal venous disconnection improves the patients' quality of life due to the incidence rate of portosystemic encephalopathy reduction by 8.3%, and in this circumstances the life span and the hemorrhage recurrency rate do not differ with such while using the standard method.
