title: [Angiographic aspects of portal hypertension in children (author's transl)].
abstract: Arterial portography is an easy and safe method for the study of children presenting signs of portal hypertension. This method permits the exact localisation of the site of obstruction, the demonstration of the degree and extent of the collateral vessels as well as an appreciation of the intrahepatic arterial bed. A more adequate therapeutic attitude can thus be defined.
