pubmed:abstractText |
A controlled study of therapeutic end-to-side portacaval shunt was carried out from 1968 to 1971 in 89 patients with alcoholic cirrhosis. Recurrent gastrointestinal bleeding was less common and chronic hepatic encephalopathy was more common in patients with shunts than in patients without shunts. The survival-rate was lower, but not significantly, in patients with shunts. No overall benefit of the operation could be demonstrated in cirrhotic patients with the selection criteria and the type of surgical shunt used in this study.
