[Calibrated latero-lateral portocaval anastomosis. Technic and results. 33 cases].
The authors describe an as yet little known technique of truncular and selective portocaval anastomosis. This technique is characterized by its simplicity and by the quality of the results obtained, with a low incidence of recurrent haemorrhages and chronic portocaval encephalopathy. For these reasons, it should be particularly useful for the treatment of haemorrhagic cirrhosis in patients with moderate hepatocellular damage.
