✦ Synopsis

the portal vein of the rat. However, the portal vein infusion using the pyloric vein cannulation overcomes several disadvantages inherent in the use of direct cannulation into the portal vein, since the latter surgery is delicate, requiring speed and accuracy to prevent excessive engorgement of the intestinal veins and acute loss of blood in the liver. The pyloric vein was selected because of its accessibility and a suitable branch of the hepatic portal vein to facilitate cannulation. The method for portal vein infusion in this communication is simple and practical as compared with that in the dog. This procedure in the rat has proven useful in drug absorption and metabolism studies. Details of these studies will be reported elsewhere.
