The illustration of end to end anastomosis and end to side anastomosis. End-to-side anastomosis of superior epigastric artery to arterialized superficial epigastric veins was utilized to establish the shunt-decompression mode in experimental group (b), while the end-to-end anastomosis of superior epigastric artery to arterialized veins was performed in control group (a)
