Hepatic artery Doppler indices in children with extra hepatic portal vein obstruction.

Unlabelled: Doppler measurement provides information on the hemodynamics in the hepatic artery and the portal venous system.

Aim: To study the hepatic artery hemodynamics in children with extra hepatic portal vein obstruction.

Materials And Methods: Hepatic artery indices were studied using Doppler indices in 15 children (<12 years) with extra hepatic portal hypertension (EHPVO) and obliterated esophageal varices.
