Development of oesophageal varices (OV) is one of the major complications of portal hypertension. In present study we attempted to compare different surgical modalities in case of Portal Hypertension (PHT) by their indications, contraindications, complications and outcomes in a group of 50 patients. Aim and objectives: To study the indications, contraindications, complications and outcomes in different decompressive shunt procedure and devascularisation procedure, to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of different surgical procedures in case of portal hypertension, to discuss role of shunt surgery in modern era of liver transplantation. Materials and methods: During our work period from June 2008 to November 2010, all patient admitted in our ...
