Effect of vasopressin on portal venous pressure.

Acta chirurgica Scandinavica, 1983
Portal venous pressure measurements were made through percutaneous transhepatic portal vein catheterization in 29 cirrhotics with portal hypertension and in seven controls before and after intravenous vasopressin infusion in a dosage of 0.24 IU/min.

Captopril reduces portal pressure effectively in portal hypertensive patients with low portal venous velocity

Journal of Gastroenterology, 2003
The effect of an angiotensin II blockade in lowering the portal pressure in patients with liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension is controversial. This prospective study was undertaken to evaluate the portal hypotensive effect of captopril compared to that of propranolol, and to determine the factors that contribute to a successful reduction in the ...

Distensibility of hepatic venous resistance sites and consequences on portal pressure

American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 1988
Hepatic venous resistance was measured in cats anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium during changes in hepatic blood flow and in inferior vena cava (IVC) pressure, in an attempt to explain the variable and partial transmission of pressure from IVC to portal vein.

Passive autoregulation of portal venous pressure: distensible hepatic resistance

American Journal of Physiology-Gastrointestinal and Liver Physiology, 1992
Hepatic resistance to portal blood flow is extremely low and both the pre- and postsinusoidal resistance sites are distensible. Both isolated in situ and in vivo vascular circuitry were used in cats to demonstrate the principle of distensible resistance as a mechanism for the observation that blood flow was able to be decreased from 50 to 20 ml.min-1 ...

Living Donor Liver Transplantation and Management of Portal Venous Pressure

Transplantation Proceedings, 2006
Small-for-size syndrome occurs in the presence of a reduced mass of liver that is insufficient to maintain normal liver function. It has been speculated that this dysfunction is principally associated with graft exposure to excessive portal perfusion. The aim of these cases was to evaluate the efficacy of octreotide, a splanchnic vasoconstrictor, and ...

The impact of endoscopic variceal ligation on the pressure of the portal venous system

Journal of Hepatology, 1996
Endoscopic variceal ligation is a viable substitute for injection sclerotherapy. It is still not known how endoscopic variceal ligation may influence the portal venous system. To clarify this issue we investigated the impact of endoscopic variceal ligation on the pressure of the portal venous system.Twenty-nine patients with a history of esophageal ...
