title: Effect of halothane on lymph flow.
abstract: The thoracic lymph duct was cannulated at the root of the neck in seven anaesthetized, artificially ventilated dogs. The mean control lymph flow was 1.51 ml kg-1 h-1 (SD +/- 0.35). The administration of 1% halothane caused a 59% decrease in mean lymph flow (to 0.62 ml kg-1 h-1) within 20 min, which returned to control values 30 min after the discontinuation of the administration of halothane.
