Does portal venous stasis during liver resection affect platelet aggregability?
Induced platelet aggregability is not affected by the method of surgical bleeding control used in liver resection. Platelet aggregability seems to be resistant even to portal venous stasis of up to 50 min during Pringle manoeuvre.
these findings indicate that PDT can interfere with factors that lead to the vascular fibrotic response. In this way, PDT, with its cytotoxic and extracellular effects, can promote healing of the vessel wall without the stimulus of fibrosis that can lead to restenosis.
