title: [Peritoneovenous shunt in resistant ascites in patients with portal hypertension].
abstract: Experience in 100 operations for the creation of a peritoneovenous shunt in 63 patients with portal hypertension and resistant ascites showed that in careful selection of patients and determination of contraindications this operation is an effective method for the treatment of resistant ascites in patients with portal hypertension. The shunt increases diuresis, reduces the volume of the abdomen, makes laparocentesis unnecessary, improves the patients' general condition and allows some of them to be prepared for interventions on the organs of the portal system which are more radical in character.
