[The use of x-ray contrast methods in the differential diagnosis of the causes of ascites].
Transcutaneous transhepatic lymphography was conducted in 116 patients with hepatic cirrhosis 127 times in total to study up the type of plasma flow. An inguinal nodulolymphography was performed additionally in several patients. Peripheral type of the plasma flow with the lymphatic vessels net arrangement on periphery of hepar was revealed in 46 patients, the lymphatic ducts blockade on the level of lig. gastroduodenalis, LI-LII vertebral bodies, forming the cisterns--in 24 and without them--in 7 thoracic duct blockade close to its outfall--in 48, and in 11 of them--extended type of the duct outfall. The choice of operative procedure--hepatic extraperitonealization, intraperitoneal and peripheral lymphovenous anastomosis conduction--was accomplished according to the type of the plasma flow present.
