Portal vein pressure was recorded in 16 patients following the injection of bradykinin into the superior mesenteric artery and a 55% increase in the pressure was noted. A 24% reduction in portal vein pressure was recorded in 6 patients where vasopressin was injected into the celiac artery and in 5 patients where the drug was injected into the superior mesenteric artery.
