[Blood-pressure behavior in rats following the diversion of renal-vein blood into the portal vein]. / Blutdruckverhalten bei Ratten nach Ableitung des Nierenvenenblutes in die Pfortader

ABSTRACT

Experimental studies on 22 hypertonic rats which had previously one kidney removed show that the deviation of the renal vein blood into the portal vein through a cavorportal or splenoportal anastomosis does not result in a lowering of the experimentally induced renovascular hypertension. These anastomoses did not alter the blood pressure in 3 normotonic rats. The prophylactic use of these anastomoses could not prevent the development of experimental renal hypertension in 2 of 3 test animals.
