J Zazgornik, and W Kreuzer, and P Balcke, and H Kopsa, and P Schmidt, and L Marosi

We present three cases with portal hypertension, ascites and concomitant chronic renal failure, successfully treated for 38, 26 and 5 months respectively with chronic hemodialysis. The causes of portal hypertension were alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver in 2 cases and cavernous transformation of portal vein with intrahepatic block, in one case. The complications of portal hypertension, the conservative and surgical treatment of oesophageal varices and ascites are discussed.
