[Arteriosclerosis and liver cirrhosis (author's transl)].
The degree of arteriosclerosis in 176 autopsies of liver cirrhosis (patients in the age range of 51 to 70 years) was compared with that of controls (without liver disease). It was found that the "protective influence" of liver cirrhosis of the process of arteriosclerosis is only true for normotonic. Associated with arterial hypertension severe arteriosclerosis is predominant in liver cirrhosis. There is even some evidence that arteriosclerosis in hypertonics with liver cirrhosis is more increased than in controls without liver diseases. The factors influencing arteriosclerosis in liver cirrhosis are discussed.
