生长抑素治疗食管胃底静脉曲张破裂出血的临床研究

目的 探讨生长抑素治疗食管胃底静脉曲张破裂出血的临床效果。方法 应用奥曲肽治疗食管胃底静脉曲张破裂出血患者41例,并与垂体后叶素治疗的32例及三腔管治疗的25例进行对照。观察3组平均止血时间、24h止血率以及治疗前后门静脉主干直径、血流速度、血流量的变化。结果 奥曲肽治疗组、垂体后叶素治疗组、三腔管治疗组平均止血时间分别为194.27±28.88min、358.11±151.43min、134.71±32.12min,24h止血率分别为63.41％、37.50％、72％。奥曲肽治疗组止血率显著高于垂体后叶素治疗组(P<0.01)。奥曲肽治疗前后门静脉内径分别为10.86±0.41mm、13.84±0.35mm,二者有显著差异。奥曲肽治疗后其门静脉血流速度,血流量与治疗前相比较也有显著差异(P<0.01,P<0.05)。结论 奥曲肽能使门脉内径相对缩小、血流量减少和血流速度加快,从而使门脉压力降低达到止血的目的。

Evaluation of an aortic stent graft for use in surgery on esophageal cancer involving the thoracic aorta

Objective: The purpose of this experimental study was to investigate whether aortic stent grafting can be applied to the treatment of an esophageal cancer involving the thoracic aorta. Methods: The canine thoracic aorta was partially resected without aorta being clamped after emplacement of an endovascular stent graft. Study I; The aortic whole layer of 1 cm in length and 1/4 of the circumference was resected and was covered by a free fascia patch of the abdominal rectal muscle immediately after stent graft placement. Study II; The aortic adventitia and the outer half of the media of the same size was resected on day 3, 7,14, 21, and on day 28, after the stent graft placement. The resected portion was covered by the free fascia patch in half experimental dogs, and was uncovered in the others. Study III; The aortic adventitia and the outer half of the media of 1 cm in length and 1/2 of the circumference was resected and was uncovered on day 7 after stent graft placement. Histological examinations were performed on day 28 and at one year after aortic resection. Results: The aortic wall could be resected in all cases with no complication, except in resection of 1/2 the circumference where the aorta had become narrow. There was no difference in healing of the resected portion of the aorta between with and without fascia covering. Conclusion: An aortic endovascular stent graft could be applied to surgery for an esophageal cancer involving the aorta.

Technique and early clinical results of endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL)

Summary Endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL) is a new technique designed to be used instead of sclerotherapy. Small elastic O rings ligate varices resulting in their strangulation and eradication. During a 12-month period, EVL was employed in 53 consecutive patients, of whom 36 (68%) had alcoholic cirrhosis 17 were Child-Pugh class A, 22 class B, and 14 class C. Varices were graded from I to IV and repeat treatments were given at 1–2 week intervals until the varices were eliminated. At follow-up ranging from 6–18 months (mean 11.5), 217 EVL treatment sessions had been performed. Of the 13 patients (24%) who died during the study, 11 died during the index hospitalization. Active bleeding was controlled in 19 of 21 patients (90%). Of 40 survivors 13 patients (33%) had 1–2 (mean 1.4) recurrent variceal bleeds while 34 patients had repeat EVL treatment. Elimination of distal varices was achieved in 26 and 7 had reduction of varices from grade III–IV to grade I–II or less. Eradication required a mean of 4.4 EVL sessions in Child's A and B patients and 7.0 sessions in Child's C patients (P<0.025). No significant treatment-related complications were observed. EVL appears to control active bleeding, is associated with a low incidence of non-bleeding complications, and may be used as an alternative to sclerotherapy.     

Histological score for cells with irregular nuclear contours for the diagnosis of reflux esophagitis in children

Histological criteria for the diagnosis of reflux esophagitis include basal zone hyperplasia, stromal papillae elongation, and inflammatory infiltrate. However, endoscopic esophageal biopsy specimens may include little or no lamina propria. Intraepithelial T lymphocytes, seen in hematoxylin and eosin-stained sections as cells with irregular nuclear contours (CINC), may have a higher density in children with esophagitis. We evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of a numerical score built up by grading the "classical" parameters and its correlation with CINC density in grasp biopsy specimens obtained from children undergoing esophagogastroduodenoscopy with and without esophagitis. We analyzed esophageal biopsy specimens from 349 children (median age, 5 years) subdivided in 4 groups according to the previous routine histology report: group 1, 144 children with esophagitis; group 2, 65 controls; group 3, 51 children with dubious esophagitis; and group 4, 75 children with esophagitis on endoscopy but a normal histology report. A numerical value was assigned to each parameter; the sum of these values represented the histological score. We also evaluated intraepithelial CINC density (ie, number of CINC per high-power field). We separately analyzed histological sections with and without lamina propria. For both total score and for CINC density, we calculated a cutoff using a receiver operating characteristic curve. Cutoffs of 6 for score and of 4 for CINC density provided the best sensitivity and specificity. Sensitivity of the histological score was better in biopsy specimens containing lamina propria (94%) than in those without lamina propria (4%). Sensitivity of CINC density was satisfactory in both specimens with (78%) and without (75%) lamina propria. Specificity was satisfactory for both parameters. In conclusion, when lamina propria was present in sections of endoscopic esophageal biopsy specimens, histological score provided a better diagnostic accuracy for the diagnosis of esophagitis. However, when no lamina propria was present, as was the case in 67% of our children, CINC density had better sensitivity. In addition, this latter parameter showed esophageal mucosa damage in 34% of previously dubious cases or cases with esophagitis at endoscopy but a previous routine histology report of normal mucosa.

Angioarchitectural study of esophageal varices

Summary Pathomorphological and angioarchitectural characteristics of esophageal varices, mainly of ruptured varices, were studied in autopsy cases. Contrast medium was injected into the esophageal vein in 25 among 75 cases with varices, and in 4 cases without varices as a control. Out of the 75 cases with varices, rupture was confirmed in 8 cases. Ruptured points were recognized at the oral end of the longitudinal veins (these veins were called sudare-like veins in this study) in the lamina propria at the lower end of the esophagus in all of the 8 cases. This ruptured area was called the critical area. By morphometric examination, dilatation of these sudare-like veins was the most obvious in severe varices, and these veins were observed to penetrate the muscularis mucosae to connect to the submucosal veins at the critical area. This area seemed to be of the greatest significance in the pathogenesis of spontaneous variceal rupture.
