Abstract
The action of splenohepatoplasty upon intrahepatic and prehepatic portal hypertension was studied. Portal hypertension was induced in Wistar rats following the establishment of cirrhotic conditions. Hepatic cirrhosis was obtained in these rats by an oral daily dose of thioacetamide during a 4 and 5 mo. period.
