    Abstract:
    The H-shaped mesenteriocaval shunt with the autovenous transplant was made in 22 patients with the intrahepatic form of portal hypertension. An original method developed by the authors was used. Two patients died after the operation. The rest of the patients were found to have decreased portal hypertension, retained hepatopetal circulation along the portal vein, no encephalopathy and no recurrent bleedings from the varicose veins of the esophagus.
