Little is known about the effects of the pathological process associated with idiopathic portal hypertension (IPH) on hepatic lymph vessels or lymph flow. We used morphometric analysis to examine IPH-associated changes in lymph vessels and branches of the portal vein, with use of immunohistochemical
In chronic portal-hypertensive rat models, such as portal vein constriction or cirrhosis, the portal blood flow that effectively perfuses the hepatocytes is substantially reduced because of anatomical or functional shunts. It is possible therefore that a feedback mechanism from the liver to the spla
