[Indicators of hepatic and intracardiac hemodynamics in the surgical treatment of liver cirrhosis].

Under analysis are results of operative treatment of 54 patients with cirrhosis of the liver. Most satisfactory hemodynamic results were obtained after endovascular embolisation of the splenic artery as the increased general hepatic blood flow and simultaneously decreased splenic blood flow, better indices of intracardiac hemodynamics. The method of peritoneoatrial shunting is most perspective in patients with cirrhosis of the liver at the stage of decompensation of portal hypertension. But possible overloading of the heart must be borne in mind.
