Objective: To investigate the effects of devascularization procedure on portal hemodynamics and recent and long-term hepatic function of portal hypertensive patients. Methods: A retrospective clinical analysis about portal hemodynamics and recent and long-term hepatic function was made in 367 cases of portal hypertensive patients, who admitted to our hospital and subjected to double devascularization from January 1989 to January 2008. Results: It was found that FPP was decreased from (36.2?4.2)cmH2O preoperatively to (31.4?3.3)cmH2O postoperatively (P0.05), but if was improved significantly after 6 and 12 month (P
