title: [Omental graft, without devascularization, in the hepatic hilum. Experimental study].
abstract: Epiploon grafts were made into the resected hepatic hilum of dogs with the aim of creating anastomosis between the intrahepatic and epiploic lymphatic systems. Various hepatic enzymes were observed over a three month period, and then a histopathological study of the grafted area was made. This type of graft was also applied to rabbits, after tying off the common hepatic duct, and the histopathological study made fifteen days after. The results show no lymphatic anastomosis between the liver and the grafted epiploon. So we would not advise using this type of technique to drain intrahepatic cholestasis in biliary atresia, at least not as the procedure of choice.
