title: [Pathogenesis of the cytopenia syndrome in patients with cirrhosis of the liver complicated by portal hypertension].
abstract: One of the main causes of cytopenia and cellular immunodeficiency in patients with cirrhosis of the liver and portal hypertension is increased portal pressure, which, in turn, induces increased storage of formed elements in the spleen. Shunting operations producing a stable decompressive effect correct cytopenia similar to splenectomy but at the same time are devoid of the menacing postoperative complications characteristic of splenectomy.
