Abstract:
Allometric growth of length and increasing of lumen area of the extrahepatic bile ducts were examined morphometrically in 50 human cases at the age of 28 gestational weeks up to 19 years. We calculated the flow resistance in relation to body weight with the help of the principle of Hagen-Poisoille. Principle ways to better bile flow in cases of non-correctable biliary atresia or bile duct hypoplasia are derived.
