| pubmed-article:1219039 | pubmed:abstractText | An experimental study of portal and inferior vena-caval clamping in the dog showed the respective roles of splanchnic blood sequestration and inferior vena-caval blood sequestration in the onset of the hemo-dynamic disturbances caused by vascular exclusion of the liver, with severe arterial hypotension. Stasis in the inferior vena cava is corrected by a caval shunt which, on the other hand, has no effect on splanchnic stasis. Clamping of the aorta may, however, act on both components of the hypotension, and this has proved promising. | lld:pubmed |
