ONLY in recent years has it become possible to demonstrate the portal venous system radiographically (Table I). The introduction of the portocaval shunt operation provided an opportunity whereby radio-opaque material could be introduced into the portal vein. Portal venography in man was first recorded in 1947 by Farinas, who injected contrast medium into the long saphenous vein of a patient who had a portocaval anastomosis, thus outlining the portal vein and its intrahepatic branches. Dotter, Payne, and O'Sullivan (1950) passed a cardiac catheter along the inferior vena cava and through the portocaval anastomosis, and injected the contrast medium directly into the portal vein. Portal venography performed at laparotomy was described by Blakemore and Lord (1945), and has since been reported by de Sousa Pereira (1949), Child, O'Sullivan, Payne, and McClure (1951), Leger, Gaily, Arvay, Oudot, and Auvert (1951), and Moore and Bridenbaugh (1951). Child and his colleagues reported. 14 portal venograms made by injecting contrast medium into a tributary of the superior mesenterio vein. They were able to demonstrate displacement and occlusion of the portal vein in local malignant and inflammatory conditions, and to outline collateral channels in such cases. The size of the liver could be determined from the distribution and size of the intrahepatic portal branches. Celis, Espinosa, and Fregoso (1948) outlined the portal vein by means of contrast medium injected through a catheter inserted into the superficial collateral channel on the anterior abdominal wall in a patient who had a persistent umbilical vein (Cruveilhier-Baumgarten syndrome). Abdominal-wall collaterals, however, are very seldom large enough for the portal vein to be outlined by this means. Steinbach, Bierman, Miller, and Wass (1953) passed a needle through the anterior abdominal wall into an intrahepatio branch of the portal vein, injected diodrast, and so outlined the intrahepatic branches of the portal system. This procedure, which is not without risk to the patient, does not give information about the extrahepatio portal bed. Rigler, Olfelt, and Krumbach (1953) performed splanchnic arteriography by injecting contrast medium into the
