    Abstract:
    The direct transcutaneous transhepatic portography was performed in 85 patients with hystologically confirmed liver cirrhosis, portal hypertension and varices of the esophagus and stomach. It was found out, that the left gastric vein partakes the varicous transformation in 100% of cases. The least had an isolated division in 27% of the studied patients. 68% had the significant dilatation of the posterior gastric vein, whereas 19 (22%) patients had the combined posterior, left and short gastric veins dilatation. The study allowed the modification of the M.D. Patsiora's operation (the azygo-portal disintegration), by supplementing it with the gastric devascularization. The new method increased the 2-years survival from 77 to 97%, improved the hemostatic effect from 51 to 89% and decrease the recurrences from 25 to 5%.
