title: Examination of lymph and bile composition following experimental liver transplantation in rat.
abstract: The lymph flow of the thoracic duct, the protein content of the lymph, bile flow and bile composition are studied during the first three hours of the recirculation phase in experimental liver transplantation. It is established that the lymph flow and the protein content of the thoracic duct decrease as a result of the interruption of hepatic lymph flow of a high protein concentration. The change in bile composition and flow is due to the reduced bile acid excretion of the transplanted hepatic tissue.
