| Popis: | Information on changes in splanchnic hemodynamics after liver transplantation is incomplete. In particular, data on long-term changes are lacking, and the relationship between changes in arterial and portal parameters is still under debate. The effect of liver transplantation on splanchnic hemodynamics was analyzed with echo-Doppler in 41 patients with cirrhosis who were followed for up to 4 years. Doppler parameters were also evaluated in 7 patients transplanted for acute liver failure and in 35 controls. In cirrhotics, portal blood velocity and flow increased immediately after transplantation (from 9.1 plus minus 3.7 cm/sec to 38.3 plus minus 14.6 and from 808 plus minus 479 mL/min to 2,817 plus minus 1,153, respectively, P |
