    Abstract:
    The urgent porto-system bypass has been used in 26 children with portal hypertension to prevent acute gastro-esophageal bleeding. This method may be used in all types of portal circulation blockade. The bleeding stopped within first two postoperative days and there were no cases of its relapse within 6 years.
