    Author: Lytkin MI, Didenko VM, Gaĭvoronskiĭ IV, Borisova NA.
    Journal: Klin Med (Mosk); 1990 Nov; 68(11):63-6. PubMed ID: 2283820.
    Abstract:
    The literature data and original experience (11 relevant cases) have provided evidence in support of marked diagnostic benefit of ultrasonography and transcutaneous transhepatic portography employed in suspected esophagogastric hemorrhage due to isolated thrombosis. Splenectomy and disconnection of pathological portocaval shunt through short gastric veins present surgery of choice.
