title: [Evaluation of liver haemodynamics by spleno-portography in portal hypertension (author's transl)].
abstract: In 68 patients arterial and portal blood flow were measured by angiodensitometry in the course of routine, indirect splenoportography. Results were compared with those already published, with investigations of a model and with animal experiments. It was shown that, given certain underlying conditions, reliable results can be obtained even in the presence of a pulsatile flow and incomplete contrast mixing. Compared with other procedures, the method has the advantage of providing a complete picture of liver haemodynamics in the course of routine splenoportography in a simple way and without affecting the patient further. As a result the indications for performing a shunt and the choice of the shunt technique can be more accurately determined.
