Summary
A new modification of E. S. London's angiostomy method is described. Isolated segments of the small intestine were used as cannulae. The intestinal cannulae were joined to the portal and hepatic veins in 28 dogs. The advantages of this method were as follows: the isolated intestine has the convenient property that its size may be changed at will; there is no danger of necrosis or of loss of patency, because the vessels supplying the cannula remain intact. Good unity with the vessels guarantees reliability of the results.
