[Roentgenomorphological substantiation of drainage of the thoracic duct in patients with liver cirrhosis].
On the basis of an analysis of rentgeno-morphological investigations of the thoracic lymphatic duct (TLD) in 115 patients with complications of hepatocirrhosis and 50 postmortem observations the authors make a conclusion that one of the main factors of the development of insufficiency of TLD in hepatocirrhosis is an excess of lymph resulting in congestion in the duct. It may be considered as a cause for drainage of the TLD in patients with hepatocirrhosis.
