title: [Results of portasystemic anastomoses in portal hypertension].
abstract: Nearest (44 patients) and long-term (35 patients) results of porto-systemic anastomoses were studied in portal hypertension. Five patients died in the nearest postoperative period. Recurrent bleedings were noted in 14 patients, hepatic encephalopathy--in 7 patients. Best results were obtained after making central spleno-renal anastomoses with the preservation of the spleen. Unfavourable factors were established which substantially influenced the survival rate of the patients at the nearest and remote periods. Indications to operation were found with special reference to the degree of portal hypertension and to unfavourable factors.
