Hepatic venography of normal and regenerating dog liver.
Total and selective hepatic vein angiographies were performed preoperatively and 6 weeks after 70 per cent liver resection in 6 dogs. The alterations in the hepatic vein system, increased diameter and elongation of the remaining lobar veins and their major tributaries plus increased angle between the radicles, are consistent with the findings earlier described by angiography of the hepatic arterial and portal venous system after major hepatic resection in dogs.
