Abstract

The study involved literature review of history and current state of surgical treatment in extrahepatic portal hypertension in children and adults. The author analyzed Russian and foreign publications on surgical repair of hepatopetal blood flow in extrahepatic portal hypertension. The issue is a high priority in Russia, which is confirmed by the fact that the author found out the pioneer studies of Russian authors, which were published earlier than the works of foreign researchers. It was found that the role of hepatopetal blood flow restoration in extrahepatic portal hypertension in adults had been much less studied than in children. More clinical material is to be gathered to determine the feasibility of such interventions in adults.
