BACKGROUND Gastric variceal hemorrhage is one of the primary manifestations of left-sided portal hypertension(LSPH).The hemorrhage is fatal and requires safe and effective interventions.AIM To evaluate the clinical safety and efficacy of modified endoscopic ultrasound(EUS)-guided selective N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate(NBC)injections for gastric variceal hemorrhage in LSPH.METHODS A retrospective observational study of patients with LSPH-induced gastric variceal hemorrhage was conducted.Preoperative EUS evaluations were performed.Enrolled patients were divided into modified and conventional groups according to the NBC injection technique.The final selection of NBC injection technique depended on the patients’preferences and clinical status.The technical and clinical success rates,operation time,NBC doses,perioperative complications,postoperative hospital stay,and recurrent bleeding rates were analyzed,respectively.RESULTS A total of 27 patients were enrolled.No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups regarding baseline characteristics.In comparison to patients in the conventional group,patients in the modified group demonstrated significantly reduced NBC doses(2.0±0.6 mL vs 3.1±1.0 mL;P=0.004)and increased endoscopic operation time(71.9±11.9 min vs 22.5±6.7 min;P<0.001).Meanwhile,the two groups had no significant difference in the technical and clinical success rates,perioperative complications,postoperative hospital stay,and recurrent bleeding rates.CONCLUSION Modified EUS-guided selective NBC injections demonstrated safety and efficacy for LSPH-induced gastric variceal hemorrhage,with advantages of reduced injection dose and no radiation risk.Drawbacks were time consumption and technical challenge. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Autoimmune pancreatitis(AIP)is a chronic form of pancreatitis characterized by diffused enlargement of the pancreas and irregular stenosis of the main pancreatic duct.Some studies have reported that AIP can cause hemorrhage of gastric varices(GV)related to portal hypertension(PH).However,such cases are rare.In addition,the association of PH with AIP is unclear.At the same time,the efficacy and duration of glucocorticoid therapy is also controversial.CASE SUMMARY In this case,we reported a case of GV in pancreatic PH associated with AIP.Enhanced abdominal computed tomography(CT)suggested splenic vein(SV)and superior mesenteric vein(SMV)thromboses.The patient received a long-term glucocorticoid therapy,that the initial dose of 40 mg is reduced weekly by 5 mg,and then reduced to 5 mg for long-term maintenance.CT and gastroscopic examination after 8 mo of treatment indicated that SV and SMV were recanalized,pancreatic stiffness and swelling were ameliorated,and the GV almost completely disappeared.CONCLUSION Long-term glucocorticoid therapy can alleviate the development of GV in patients with AIP and has potential reversibility. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding is a common medical emergency that has a 10%hospital mortality rate.According to the etiology,this disease can be divided into acute varicose veins and nonvaricose veins.Bleeding from esophageal varices is a life-threatening complication of portal hypertension.Portal hypertension is a clinical syndrome defined as a portal venous pressure that exceeds 10 mmHg.Cirrhosis is the most common cause of portal hypertension,and thrombosis of the portal system not associated with liver cirrhosis is the second most common cause of portal hypertension in the Western world.Primary myeloproliferative disorders are the main cause of portal venous thrombosis,and somatic mutations in the Janus kinase 2 gene(JAK2 V617F)can be found in approximately 90% of polycythemia vera,50% of essential thrombocyrosis and 50% of primary myelofibrosis.CASE SUMMARY We present a rare case of primary myelofibrosis with gastrointestinal bleeding as the primary manifestation that presented as portal-superior-splenic mesenteric vein thrombosis.Peripheral blood tests revealed the presence of the JAK2 V617F mutation.Bone marrow biopsy ultimately confirmed the diagnosis of myelofibrosis(MF-2 grade).CONCLUSION In patients with acute esophageal variceal bleeding due to portal hypertension and vein thrombosis without cirrhosis,the possibility of myeloproliferative neoplasms should be considered,and the JAK2 mutation test should be performed. 展开更多

AIM: To evaluate clinical and laboratory parameters for prediction of bleeding from esophageal varices (EV) in children with portal hypertension. METHODS: Retrospective study of 103 children (mean age: 10.1 ± 7.7 years), 95.1% with intrahepatic portal hypertension. All patients had no history of bleeding and underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy for EV screening. We recorded variceal size (F1, F2 and F3), red-color signs and portal gastropathy, according to the Japanese Research Society for Portal Hypertension classification. Patients were classified into two groups: with and without EV. Seven noninvasive markers were evaluated as potential predictors of EV: (1) platelet count; (2) spleen size z score, expressed as a standard deviation score relative to normal values for age; (3)platelet count to spleen size z score ratio; (4) platelets count to spleen size (cm) ratio; (5) the clinical prediction rule (CPR); (6) the aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio index (APRI); and (7) the risk score. RESULTS: Seventy-one children had EV on first endoscopy. On univariate analysis, spleen size, platelets, CPR, risk score, APRI, and platelet count to spleen size z score ratio showed significant associations. The best noninvasive predictors of EV were platelet count [area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) 0.82; 95%CI: 0.73-0.91], platelet: spleen size z score (AUROC 0.78; 95%CI: 0.67-0.88), CPR (AUROC 0.77; 95%CI: 0.64-0.89), and risk score (AUROC 0.77; 95%CI: 0.66-0.88). A logistic regression model was applied with EV as the dependent variable and corrected by albumin, bilirubin and spleen size z score. Children with a CPR < 114 were 20.7-fold more likely to have EV compared to children with CPR > 114. A risk score > -1.2 increased the likelihood of EV (odds ratio 7.47; 95%CI: 2.06-26.99). CONCLUSION: Children with portal hypertension with a CPR below 114 and a risk score greater than -1.2 are more likely to have present EV. Therefore, these two tests can be helpful in selecting children for endoscopy. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome has been reported after oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy,but liver fibrosis and non-cirrhotic portal hypertension(NCPH)are rarely reported.CASE SUMMARY Here,we describe the case of a 64-year-old woman who developed isolated gastric variceal bleeding 16 mo after completing eight cycles of oxaliplatin combined with capecitabine chemotherapy after colon cancer resection.Surprisingly,splenomegaly and thrombocytopenia were not accompanied by variceal bleeding,which has been reported to have predictive value for gastric variceal formation.However,a liver biopsy showed fibrosis in the portal area,suggesting NCPH.The patient underwent endoscopic treatment and experienced no further symptoms.CONCLUSION It is necessary to guard against long-term complications after oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy.Sometimes splenic size and platelet level may not always accurately predict the occurrence of portal hypertension. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Left-sided portal hypertension(LSPH),also known as sinistral portal hypertension or regional portal hypertension,refers to extrahepatic portal hypertension caused by splenic vein obstruction or stenosis.N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate(NBC)has been widely used in the endoscopic hemostasis of portal hypertension,but adverse events including renal or pulmonary thromboembolism,mucosal necrosis and gastrointestinal(GI)bleeding may occur after treatment.Herein,we report successfully managing gastric variceal(GV)hemorrhage secondary to LSPH using modified endoscopic ultrasound(EUS)-guided selective NBC injections.CASE SUMMARY A 35-year-old man was referred to our hospital due to an upper GI hemorrhage.Gastroscopy revealed GV hemorrhage and computed tomography venography(CTV)confirmed LSPH.The patient requested endoscopic procedures and rejected surgical therapies including splenectomy.EUS-guided selective NBC injections were performed and confluences of gastric varices were selected as the injection sites to reduce the injection dose.The“sandwich”method using undiluted NBC and hypertonic glucose was applied.No complications occurred.The patient was followed up regularly after discharge.Three months later,the follow-up gastroscopy revealed firm gastric submucosa with no sign of NBC expulsion and the follow-up CTV showed improvements in LSPH.No recurrent GI hemorrhage was reported during this follow-up period.CONCLUSION EUS-guided selective NBC injection may represent an effective and economical treatment for GV hemorrhage in patients with LSPH. 展开更多

The displacement of spleen from its normal location to other places is known as wandering spleen(WS)and is a rare disease.The repeated torsion of WS is due to the presence of long pedicle and absence/laxity of anchoring ligaments.A WS is an extremely rare cause of left-sided portal hypertension(PHT)and severe gastric variceal bleeding.Left-sided PHT usually occurs as a result of splenic vein occlusion caused by splenic torsion,extrinsic compression of the splenic pedicle by enlarged spleen,and splenic vein thrombosis.There is a paucity of data on WSrelated PHT,and these data are mostly in the form of case reports.In this review,we have analyzed the data of 20 reported cases of WS-related PHT.The mechanisms of pathogenesis,clinico-demographic profile,and clinical implications are described in this article.The majority of patients were diagnosed in the second to third decade of life(mean age:26 years),with a strong female preponderance(M:F=1:9).Eleven of the 20 WS patients with left-sided PHT presented with abdominal pain and mass.In 6 of the 11 patients,varices were detected incidentally on preoperative imaging studies or discovered intraoperatively.Therefore,pre-operative search for varices is required in patients with splenic torsion. 展开更多

The surgical therapy of this disease focuses on the re sultant upper digestive tract bleeding, which can imperi patients' life directly. This study was to evaluate the effect of triplex operation ( mesocaval C shunt with artificia graft, ligation of the coronary vein and splenic artery) on portal hypertension and its associated upper digestive tract bleeding. METHODS: A retrospective study was made on clinical da- ta of 140 patients undergoing triplex operation, who had suffered from portal hypertension and upper digestive tract bleeding. RESULTS: Postoperative portal pressure was 25-43 cmH2 O ( preoperative portal pressure 27-45 cmH2 O ) with the average reduction of 10 cmH2O. One patient (0.7%) died of cerebrovascular disease. Five patients (3.5%) suffered from mild hepatic encephalopathy, which was ameliorated through conservative treatment. Lymphatic fistula occurred in 3 patients (2.1% ) who recovered without treatment 5, 10 days and 3 months after operation respectively. One hundred patients were followed up for 1 month to 6 years without recurrent hemorrhage or hepatic encephalopathy. Hypersplenism and ascites disappeared in 70 patients (70% ) and 80 patients (80% ) respectively. A significant reduction of ascites was seen in 12 patients(12% ). The arti- ficial vessels remained unblocking detected by B type ultra- sonography and Doppler sonography in 95 patients (95% ). CONCLUSION: Triplex operation is suitable for patients with the following portal hypertensions; portal hyperten- sion caused by simple occlusion of the hepatic vein (a patho- logical type of Budd-Chiari syndrome); thrombosis of the portal vein or prehepatic portal hypertension because of cavernous transformation; intrahepatic portal hypertension with rebleeding after splenectomy or non-operation, and those patients with liver function in grade A or B according to the Child-Pugh classification. 展开更多

A 75-year old man had been diagnosed at 42 years of age as having polycythemia vera and had been monitored at another hospital. Progression of anemia had been recognized at about age 70 years, and the patient was thus referred to our center in 2008 where secondary myelofibrosis was diagnosed based on bone marrow biopsy findings. Hematemesis due to rupture of esophageal varices occurred in January and February of 2011. The bleeding was stopped by endoscopic variceal ligation. Furthermore, in March of the same year, hematemesis recurred and the patient was transported to our center. He was in irreversible hemorrhagic shock and died. The autopsy showed severe bone marrow fibrosis with mainly argyrophilic fibers, an observation consistent with myelofibrosis. The liver weighed 1856 g the spleen 1572 g, indicating marked hepatosplenomegaly. The liver and spleen both showed extramedullary hemopoiesis. Myelofibrosis is often complicated by portal hypertension and is occasionally associated with gastrointestinal hemorrhage due to esophageal varices. A patient diagnosed as having myelofibrosis needs to be screened for esophageal/gastric varices. Myelofibrosis has a poor prognosis. Therefore, it is necessary to carefully decide the therapeutic strategy in consideration of the patient's concomitant conditions, treatment invasiveness and quality of life. 展开更多

The diagnosis and management of cirrhosis and portal hypertension(PH)with its complications including variceal hemorrhage,ascites,and hepatic encephalopathy continues to evolve.Although there are established“standards of care”in liver biopsy and measurement of PH,gastric varices remain an area without a universally accepted therapeutic approach.The concept of“Endo Hepatology”has been used to describe of the applications of endoscopic ultrasound(EUS)to these challenges.EUS-liver biopsy(EUS-LB)offers an alternative to percutaneous and transjuglar liver biopsy without compromising safety or efficacy,and with added advantages including the potential to reduce sampling error by allowing biopsies in both hepatic lobes.Furthermore,EUS-LB can be performed during the same procedure as EUS-guided portal pressure gradient(PPG)measurements,allowing for the collection of valuable diagnostic and prognostic data.EUS-guided PPG measurements provide an appealing alternative to the transjugular approach,with proposed advantages including the ability to directly measure portal vein pressure.In addition,EUS-guided treatment of gastric varices(GV)offers several possible advantages to current therapies.EUS-guided treatment of GV allows detailed assessment of the vascular anatomy,similar efficacy and safety to current therapies,and allows the evaluation of treatment effect through doppler ultrasound visualization.The appropriate selection of patients for these procedures is paramount to ensuring generation of useful clinical data and patient safety. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Portal hypertension is a major complication of cirrhosis that is associated with significant morbidity and mortality.The present gold-standard method to risk stratify and observe cirrhosis patients with portal hypertension is hepatic venous pressure gradient measurement or esophagogastroduodenoscopy.However,these methods are invasive,carry a risk of complications and are associated with significant patient discomfort.Therefore,non-invasive splenic parameters are of clinical interest as potential useful markers in determining the presence of portal hypertension.However,diagnostic accuracy and reproducibility remains unvalidated.AIM To assess the diagnostic accuracy of spleen stiffness,area and diameter in predicting the presence of portal hypertension.METHODS Of 50 patients with varying liver disease pathologies were prospectively recruited from the St.Mary’s Hospital Liver Unit in London;25 with evidence of portal hypertension and 25 with no evidence of portal hypertension.Liver stiffness,spleen stiffness,spleen diameter and spleen area were measured using the Philips Affiniti 70 elastography point quantification point shear wave elastography system.The aspartate aminotransferase-to-platelet-ratio-index(APRI)score was also calculated.Performance measures,univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to evaluate demographic,clinical and elastography variables.Interclass correlation coefficient was used to determine the reproducibility of splenic area and diameter.RESULTS On univariate and individual performance,platelet count[area under the receiver operating characteristic(AUROC)0.846,P value<0.001],spleen area(AUROC 0.828,P value=0.002)and APRI score(AUROC 0.827,P value<0.001)were the most accurate variables in identifying the presence of portal hypertension.On multivariate logistic regression models constructed,the combination of spleen area greater than 57.90 cm2 and platelet count less than 126×10^9 had 63.2%sensitivity and 100%specificity,100%positive predictive value and 100%negative predictive value.An alternative combination of spleen stiffness greater than 29.99 kPa and platelet count less than 126×10^9 had 88%sensitivity,75%specificity,78.6%positive predictive value and 85.7%negative predictive value.An interclass correlation coefficient value of 0.98(95%CI:0.94-0.99,P value<0.001)and 0.96(95%CI:0.91-0.99,P value<0.001)were determined for inter-operator variability for spleen area and diameter respectively.CONCLUSION Spleen area,spleen stiffness and platelet count may be useful markers to assess the presence of portal hypertension in patients of various etiologies. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Pancreatic segmental portal hypertension(PSPH) is the only type of portal hypertension that can be completely cured. However, it can easily cause varicose veins in the esophagus and stomach and hemorrhage in the digestive tract.AIM To explore the application of computed tomography(CT) to examine the characteristics of PSPH and assess the risk level.METHODS This was a retrospective analysis of CT images of 22 patients diagnosed with PSPH at our center. Spearman correlation analysis was performed using the range of esophageal and gastric varices(measured by the vertical gastric wall), the ratio of the width of the splenic portal vein to that of the compression site(S/C ratio), the degree of splenomegaly, and the stage determined by gastroscopy. This study examined whether patients experienced gastrointestinal bleeding within 2 wk and combined CT and gastroscopy to explore the connection between bleeding and CT findings.RESULTS The range of esophageal and gastric varices showed the best correlation in the diagnosis of PSPH(P < 0.001), and the S/C ratio(P = 0.007) was correlated with the degree of splenomegaly(P = 0.021) and PSPH(P < 0.05). This study revealed that male patients were more likely than females to progress to grade 2 or grade 3 as determined by gastroscopy. CT demonstrated excellent performance, with an area under the curve of 0.879.CONCLUSION CT can be used to effectively analyze the imaging signs of PSPH, and CT combined with gastroscopy can effectively predict the risk level of gastrointestinal bleeding. 展开更多

AIM:To study characteristics of collateral circulation of gastric varices (GVs) with 64-row multidetector computer tomography portal venography (MDCTPV).METHODS:64-row MDCTPV with a slice thickness of 0.625 mm and a scanning field from 2 cm above the tracheal bifurcation to the lower edge of the kidney was performed in 86 patients with GVS diagnosed by endoscopy. The computed tomography protocol included unenhanced,arterial and portal vein phases. The MDCTPV was performed on an AW4.3 workstation. GVs were classified into three types according to Sarin's Classification. The afferent and efferent veins of each type of GV were observed.RESULTS:The afferent venous drainage originated mostly from the left gastric vein alone (LGV) (28/86,32.59%),or the LGV more than the posterior gastric vein/short gastric vein [LGV > posterior gastric vein/short gastric vein (PGV/SGV)] (22/86,25.58%),as seen by MDCTPV. The most common efferent venousdrainage was via the azygos vein to the superior vena cava (53/86,61.63%),or via the gastric/splenorenal shunt (37/86,43.02%) or inferior phrenic vein (8/86,9.30%) to the inferior vena cava. In patients with gastroesophageal varices type 1,the afferent venous drainage of GV mainly originated from the LGV or LGV > PGV/SGV (43/48,89.58%),and the efferent venous drainage was mainly via the azygos vein to the super vena cava (43/48,89.58%),as well as via the gastric/splenorenal shunt (8/48,16.67%) or inferior phrenic vein (3/48,6.25%) to the inferior vena cava. In patients with gastroesophageal varices type 2,the afferent venous drainage of the GV mostly came from the PGV/SGV more than the LGV (PGV/SGV > LGV) (8/16,50%),and the efferent venous drainage was via the azygos vein (10/16,62.50%) and gastric/splenorenal shunt (9/16,56.25%). In patients with isolated gastric varices,the main afferent venous drainage was via the PGV/SGV alone (16/22,72.73%),and the efferent venous drainage was mainly via the gastric/splenorenal shunt (20/22,90.91%),as well as the inferior phrenic vein (3/23) to the inferior vena cava. CONCLUSION:MDCTPV can clearly display the afferent and efferent veins of all types of GV,and it could provide useful reference information for the clinical management of GV bleeding. 展开更多

Measurement of portal pressure is pivotal in the evaluation of patients with liver cirrhosis. The measurement of the hepatic venous pressure gradient represents the reference method by which portal pressure is estimated. However, it is an invasive procedure that requires significant hospital resources, including experienced staff, and is associated with considerable cost. Non-invasive methods that can be reliably used to estimate the presence and the degree of portal hypertension are urgently needed in clinical practice. Biochemical and morphological parameters have been proposed for this purpose, but have shown disappointing results overall. Splanchnic Doppler ultrasonography and the analysis of microbubble contrast agent kinetics with contrast-enhanced ultrasonography have shown better accuracy for the evaluation of patients with portal hypertension. A key advancement in the non-invasive evaluation of portal hypertension has been the introduction in clinical practice of methods able to measure stiffness in the liver, as well as stiffness/congestion in the spleen. According to the data published to date, it appears to be possible to rule out clinically significant portal hypertension in patients with cirrhosis (i.e., hepatic venous pressure gradient &#x02265; 10 mmHg) with a level of clinically-acceptable accuracy by combining measurements of liver stiffness and spleen stiffness along with Doppler ultrasound evaluation. It is probable that the combination of these methods may also allow for the identification of patients with the most serious degree of portal hypertension, and ongoing research is helping to ensure progress in this field. 展开更多

METHODS: Thirty male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats in the model group in which a two-stage ligation of portal vein plus ligation of the left adrenal vein was performed, were divided into three subgroups (M7, M14, and M21) in which the rats were kiued on the seventh day, the 14th d and the 21 d after the complete portal ligation. Thirty male SD rats, which underwent the sham operation in the control group, were also separated into three subgroups (C7, C14 and C21) corresponding to the models. The expression of TNF-α and VEGF in the esophagus of all the six subgroups of rats were measured with immunohistochemical SP technique. RESULTS: The portal pressure in the three model subgroups was significantly higher than that in the corresponding control subgroups (23.82±1.83 vs 11.61±0.86 cmH2O, 20.90±3.27 vs11.43±1.55 cmH2O and 20.68±2.27 vs 11.87±0.79 cmH2O respectively, vs P<0.01), as well as the number (9.3±1.6 vs 5.1?.8, 11.1±0.8 vs 5.4±1.3 and 11.7±1.5 vs 5.2?.1 respectively, P<0.01) and the total vascular area (78 972.6±3 527.8 vs 12 993.5±4 994.8 μm2, 107 207.5±4 6461.4 vs 11 862.6±5 423.2 μm2 and 110 241.4±49 262.2 vs 11 973.7±3 968.5 μm2 respectively, P<0.01) of submucosal veins in esophagus. Compared to the corresponding controls, the expression of TNP-α and VEGF in M21 was significantly higher (2.23±0.30 vs 1.13±0.28 and 1.65±0.38 vs 0.56±0.30 for TNF-α and VEGF respectively, P <0.01), whereas there was no difference in M7(1.14±0.38 vs 1.06±0.27 and 0.67±0.35 vs 0.50±0.24 for TNPa and VEGF respectively, P>0.05) and M14 (1.20±0.25 vs 1.04±0.26 and 0.65±0.18 vs 0.53±0.25 for TNF-α and VEGF respectively, P>0.05). And the expression of TNF-α and VEGF in M21 was significantly higher than that in M7 (2.23±0.30 vs1.14±0.38 and 1.65±0.38 vs 0.67±0.35 for TNF-α and VEGF respectively, P<0.01) and M14(2.23±0.30 vs 1.20±0.25 and 1.65±±0.38 vs 0.65±0.18 for TNF-a and VEGF respectively, P<0.01), but there was no difference between M7and M14(1.14±0.38 vs1.20±0.25 and 0.67±0.35 vs 0.65±0.18 for TNF-α and VEGF respectively, P>0.05). CONCLUSION: In the development of esophageal varices in portal hypertensive rats, increased TNF-α and VEGF may be not an early event, and probably play a role in weakening the esophageal wall and the rupture of esophageal varices. 展开更多

The endoscopy plays an important role in the management of these patients. The role of endoscopy is both diagnostic and interventional and in the last years the techniques have undergone a rapid expansion with the advent of different and novel endoscopic modalities, with consequent improvement of investigation and treatment of these patients. The choice of best therapeutic strategy depends on many factors: baseline disease, patient's clinical performance and the timing when it is done if in emergency or a prophylactic approaches. In this review we evaluate the endoscopic management of patients with the gastrointestinal complications of portal hypertension. 展开更多

AIM: To study the value of biochemical and ultrasonographic parameters in prediction of presence and size of esophageal varices.METHODS: The study includes selected cirrhotic patients who underwent a complete biochemical workup, upper digestive endoscopic and ultrasonographic examinations. Albumin/right liver lobe diameter and platelet count/spleen diameter ratios were calculated. The correlation between calculated ratio and the presence and degree of esophageal varices was evaluated.RESULTS: Ninety-four subjects (62 males, 32 females), with a mean age of 52.32 ± 13.60 years, were studied. Child-Pugh class A accounted for 42.6%, class 13 37.2%, whereas class C 20.2%. Esophageal varices (OE) were not demonstrated by upper digestive endoscopy in 24.5%, while OE grade Iwas found in 22.3% patients, grade Ⅱ in 33.0%, grade m in 16.0%, and grade iV in 4.3%. The mean value of right liver lobe diameter/ albumin ratio was 5.51± 1.82 (range from 2.76 to 11.44), while the mean platelet count/spleen diameter ratio was 1017.75 ± 729.36 (range from 117.39 to 3362.50), respectively. Statistically significant correlation was proved by Spearman's test between OE grade and calculated ratios. The P values were 0.481 and -0.686, respectively.CONCLUSION: The right liver lobe diameter/albumin and platelet count/spleen diameter ratios are noninvasive parameters providing accurate information pertinent to determination of presence of esophageal varices, and their grading in patients with liver cirrhosis. 展开更多

AIM: To investigate potential roles of per rectal portal scintigraphy in diagnosis of esophageal varices and predicting the risk of bleeding.METHODS: Fifteen normal subjects and fifty cirrhotic patients with endoscopically confirmed esophageal varices were included. Patients were categorized into bleeder and non-bleeder groups according to history of variceal bleeding. All had completed per rectal portal scintigraphy using 99mTechnetium pertechnetate. The shunt index was calculated from the ratio of 99mTechnetium pertechnetate in the heart and the liver. Data were analyzed using Student’s t-test and receiver operating characteristics.RESULTS: Cirrhotic patients showed a higher shunt index than normal subjects (63.80 ± 25.21 vs 13.54 ± 6.46, P < 0.01). Patients with variceal bleeding showed a higher shunt index than those without bleeding (78.45 ± 9.40 vs 49.35 ± 27.72, P < 0.01). A shunt index of over 20% indicated the presence of varices and that of over 60% indicated the risk of variceal bleeding.CONCLUSION: In cirrhotic patients, per rectal portal scintigraphy is a clinically useful test for identifying esophageal varices and risk of variceal bleeding. 展开更多
