Research Abstract

Surgical splanchnic circulatory diversion into the systemic circulation, such as posrtocaval shunting or mesocaval shunting, has still been reported to treat bleeding esophageal varices caused by portal hypertension in the present era of liver transplantation. Even in liver transplanted recipients, surgical portosystemic shunting has been indicated to alleviate successfully portal hypertension, and in order to avoid graft congestion and failure by overperfusion in adult recipients using small-for-size partial liver graft. When a surgical portosystemic shunting is necessary in a patient with intrinsic liver disease, the possibility of future liver transplantation has to be considered. In liver transplanted recipients, however, surgical shunt cannot be closed whenever hepatic encephalopathy does not develop.
Body weight of mesocaval shunt group did not significantly less increase in comparison with control group. While, liver weight of mesocaval shunt significantly less increased in comparison with control group. Triglyceride secretion rate of mesocaval shunt significalntly less increased in comparison with control group. Triglyceride secretion rate of mesocaval shunt significantly correlated with liver weight.
