[Retrograde pancreatic phlebography with simultaneous balloon occlusion of portal and arterial flow. An experimental study (author's transl)].
The possibility of demonstrating the venous system of the entire pancreas by retrograde portal contrast injection with simultaneous balloon occlusion of the portal vein, coeliac axis and superior mesenteric artery was investigated in 12 dogs. In seven cases good filling of the larger pancreatic veins was obtained. Portal and arterial pressure relationships altered considerably during various experimental conditions. A rise in serum transaminases was observed only once when there was thrombosis of the portal vein and branches of the hepatic veins. Apart from this, there was no rise in transaminases or alphaamylase. Histologically there were only minor changes in the liver after total occlusion of 40 minutes, the occlusion having been performed over periods of six minutes with two to five minutes of flow alternating. The application of this method to man is discussed.
