Hemodynamic Changes in Progressively Lobectomized Liver of the Dog: Correlation with Remnant Percentage of the Liver

Progressive lobectomies of the liver were performed in dogs to evaluate hemodynamic changes in lobectomized liver. Portal venous blood flow (PVF) and hepatic arterial blood flow (HAF) were decreased, whereas PVF per 100 g liver tissue, portal venous pressure and portal venous resistance in 100 g liver tissue were increased. These changes were significantly (p
