title: [Anastomosis of the thoracic duct and the esophagus in surgical treatment of cholestasis. Experimental research].
abstract: After brief recall of the pathophysiology of cholestasis, the authors describe a technic of internal drainage of lymph from the thoracic duct by an indirect anastomosis created surgically between the latter and the esophaghus. They conclude that the procedure definitely solves certain symptomatologic aspects of cholestasis, but has no effects on the underlying anatomopathological lesion, which does not regress once established.
