Abstract
Pancreatico-portal dissociation provides a viable canine experimental model for evaluating the effects of portal flow reduction and pancreatic hormone deprivation in liver mainenance. Initial studies indicate flow as a "vehicle" for substrate (and/or hormone) delivery and imply a possible contribution to hepatic maintenance of the gastrosplenic venous axis.
