  • Title: [Lymphovenous anastomosis in correcting for ascites in liver cirrhosis].
    Author: Granov AM, Zemlianoĭ VP, Borisov AE, Shipulin PP.
    Journal: Vestn Khir Im I I Grek; 1980 Feb; 124(2):59-63. PubMed ID: 7368509.
    Abstract:
    In 26 of 30 patients operated for ascitis in cirrhosis of the liver cervical lymphovenous anastomosis was performed. It gave positive effects on the treatment of ascitis in cirrhosis of the liver in cases when the purposeful complex of conservative measures was little effective. When ascitis is associated with varicose veins the authors recommend to combine lympho-venous anastomosis with temporary drainage of the duct by bringing the catheter onto the skin through the lympho-venous anastomosis and the jugular vein.
