Five long-term hemodialysis patients with clinical iron overload were treated with 300 U/kg of recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) intravenously (IV) after each hemodialysis. The patients were phlebotomized after each hemodialysis at any time the predialysis hematocrit was 35% or greater. Over a period of 1 year, the average phlebotomy rate varied from 0.5 to 1.1 U/wk with a mean phlebotomy rate of 45.8 +/- 5.6 U/yr (range, 27 to 57 U). The mean serum ferritin decreased from 8,412 +/- 1,599 micrograms/L (ng/mL) to 3,007 +/- 1,129 micrograms/L (ng/mL), and the mean iron removal over this period was 9.5 g. Liver iron deposition, as measured by density on computed tomographic (CT) scan, improved, while skin color lightened significantly. Patients tolerated phlebotomy with no major symptoms or complications and exhibited no change in the hemogram or serum chemistries. In patients with severe iron overload, changes in serum ferritin with erythropoietin treatment alone may not reflect true change in iron burden. Use of high-dose erythropoietin and phlebotomy is an effective and safe (at least for 1 year) method of reducing iron overload in long-term hemodialysis patients. 相似文献

Four hemodialysis patients with transfusional iron overload were treated with three times weekly intravenous (IV) deferoxamine mesylate during the dialysis treatment. Using a gamma ray scattering technique, significant reductions in liver iron content were documented, with a mean follow-up of 20 months. Three of the four patients showed significant improvements in liver enzymes. This decrease in liver iron content could not be predicted by clinical parameters or serum ferritin. Therapy proved to be safe and effective, but follow-up requires monitoring of tissue iron by means other than standard laboratory tests. 相似文献

A retrospective review of 180 patients who underwent surgery for primary colon carcinoma from August 1989 to August 1994 was performed to evaluate the necessity of preoperative CT scans in patients with known colon cancer. Sixty-seven patients had preoperative CT scans. Data were collected to evaluate the ability of the scan to detect hepatic metastases, lymph node involvement, and incidental findings that would possibly alter the planned surgical approach. In this study, CT had a sensitivity and specificity of 75 per cent and 88 per cent, respectively, in detecting hepatic metastases. Only 19 per cent of patients with lymph node involvement were correctly staged with CT scans as having lymphadenopathy. Only 3 of 67 patients had incidental findings on CT scans that ultimately changed the surgical approach. It is apparent that because CT scans detect only 75 per cent of hepatic and 19 per cent of hepatic and lymph node involvement and does not seem to alter the planned approach, it is not justified for routine preoperative evaluation of all patients. We, therefore, recommend a more selective approach to patients suspected of having advanced disease if the surgeon suspects that the information may alter the surgical approach. 相似文献

Patients with hepatic iron overload who undergo orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) have a worse 1-year survival than those who undergo transplantation for other indications; the long-term outcome in this population is unknown. The purpose of this study is to report long-term follow-up after OLT in a cohort of patients with hepatic iron overload. Five liver transplant centers in the United States reported follow-up data on 37 patients receiving a first liver transplant who had severe hepatic iron overload in their native livers. Kaplan-Meier 5-year survival among these patients was compared with survival data from all age-matched liver transplantations reported to the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) over the same time period (1987 to 1993). The 5-year survival rate after OLT was 40% in the hepatic iron overload group compared with an overall survival rate of 62% for all patient groups from the UNOS registry (P =.0009). Although sepsis was the cause of 53% of all deaths occurring within the first year after OLT, cardiac complications accounted for 50% of the late mortality in patients with hepatic iron overload. In conclusion, long-term survival after OLT is significantly decreased in patients with hepatic iron overload. Infectious and cardiac complications are the most common causes of death in these patients. Further studies are needed to define the relationship between hepatic iron overload and mortality and to examine the effect of iron depletion on outcome after OLT in this patient population. 相似文献

Efficacy of multi-slice computed tomography cholangiography before laparoscopic cholecystectomy 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

BACKGROUND: Bile duct injury is one of the serious surgical complications of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Clear biliary tract imaging to detect the anomaly of the bile ducts before operation is thought to be useful to prevent this complication. The objective of this study was to investigate the preoperative feasibility of using multi-slice computed tomography scanning after drip infusion cholangiography-computed tomography (DIC-CT) for LC. METHODS: Laparoscopic cholecystectomies were carried out in 33 patients and DIC-CT and magnetic resonance cholangiography (MRC) were also carried out in all of these patients. We evaluated the recognition of the junction of the cystic duct and detection of anomalies of the extrahepatic bile ducts using the latter two methods. RESULTS: In 33 patients, DIC-CT showed the junction of the cystic duct in 31 (94%) and MRC in 25 (76%) patients, respectively. Anomalies of the extrahepatic bile ducts or the cystic duct were detected in four (12%) patients by DIC-CT, but MRC could show only one of these lesions. There were no major adverse reactions in either examination. CONCLUSION: DIC-CT is an efficacious preoperative technique as compared with MRC for the biliary tract imaging. DIC-CT may be of benefit for both patients scheduled to undergo LC and their surgeons. 相似文献

Efficacy of spiral computed tomography in diagnosis of thorax injuries due to combined trauma 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Spiral computed tomography of the thorax was used in 112 patients with mechanical trauma. High efficacy of this method in diagnosis of fracture of posterior and lateral costal parts (69.6%), pneumo- and hydrothorax (100%), traumatic infiltration and gas-filled cysts of the lung (100%), pulmonary hematoma (90%) was demonstrated. Localization of bone fragments in pleural cavity (100%) had special significance. It is demonstrated that the method has low efficacy in the diagnosis of injuries of anterior costal part and sternum (49.3 and 20%). Indications for this method were formulated. The results of the study recommend spiral computed tomography as a priority diagnostic method in combined trauma of the chest. 相似文献

Anemia has been linked to increased mortality and morbidity in renal hemodialysis patients. Other risk factors that contribute to an adverse outcome include the variability of hemoglobin (Hb) levels and the decreased response to erythropoiesis-stimulating factors (ESFs). In this study we evaluated the effectiveness of four different ESFs (epoetin-A, epoetin-B, darbepoetin, and CERA), assessed the variability of Hb levels, and compared ESF dosages which contributed to the achievement of Hb levels in each individual patient with renal failure undergoing chronic hemodialysis maintenance. In conclusion, the four ESFs administered are equally effective in the treatment of anemia in renal hemodialysis patients and they do not influence in a different manner the variability of Hb. The administration of darbepoetin-A and CERA might possibly cause more patients to overshoot the target level of Hb. 相似文献

In this study the incidence and contributing factors of iron overload in paediatric patients treated with intermittent haemodialysis were evaluated. Particular attention was given to the diagnostic value of serum ferritin in the assessment of body iron stores in patients with hepatocellular damage. The results of treatment of secondary haemosiderosis with desferrioxamine (DFO) are reported. Serum ferritin levels were measured in 18 children and adolescents undergoing long-term haemodialysis; 8 of these had biochemical evidence of hepatocellular damage. In all patients a good correlation was found between serum ferritin levels and the amount of iron stored in the reticuloendothelial system. Six patients developed iron overload. Patients with secondary haemosiderosis were younger at the start of haemodialysis and received significantly more blood. Although not significant, more patients with haemochromatosis-associated alleles and bilateral nephrectomy had iron overload, and the duration of dialysis was obviously longer for overloaded patients (40 months versus 26 months). The patients with iron overload were treated with DFO. The data from all patients showed that DFO was ineffective when administered at a dose of 25 mg/kg during dialysis and that in individual patients changes in serum ferritin correlated with changes in the amount of blood transfusions administered. 相似文献

Low dose intravenous ascorbic acid for erythropoietin-hyporesponsive anemia in diabetic hemodialysis patients with iron overload 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
BACKGROUND: Recent report demonstrates that inadequate iron mobilization and defective iron utilization may cause recombinant erythropoieitin (rEPO) hyporesponsiveness in hemodialysis (HD) patients with iron overload. The effect of intravenous ascorbic acid (IVAA) in HD patients selected on the basis of iron overload and EPO resistance also has been proven. However, it is uncertain whether IVAA still works in diabetic ESRD patients with hyperferritinemia. Therefore, the aim of this study focusing on diabetic ESRD patients was to analyze the potential effect of low dose IVAA on improvement of anemia and erythropoiesis-related parameters when compared with control period. PATIENTS AND METHOD: This study consisted of 22 chronic hemodialysis patients with type II diabetes in a single dialysis unit. In studies of this type, all eligible patients are followed up, but the primary comparison is still between different sequentially treatment including control period and post-IVAA period in same patients. IVAA patients received ascorbic acid, 100 mg each administered intravenously three times per week for eight weeks of treatment and four months of post-treatment follow-up. RESULTS: The demographic characteristics of 22 diabetic uremic patients show that mean age is 63.6 +/- 10.2 years old. The ratio of sex (M/F) = 10/12. Mean duration of HD is 46.7 +/- 33.2 months. As for the urea kinetic study between these two periods including KT/V, nPCR, and URR, there is no significantly different. As for anemia-related parameters, Hb and Hct increased significantly in post-IVAA period after 3 months compared with control period, while MCV did not increase significantly. Serum ferritin significantly decreased at study completion. The same situation is for iron. As for TS, it significantly increased at one month and further markedly increased at subsequent three months. CONCLUSION: This study has demonstrated that short-term low dose IVAA therapy can facilitate iron release from reticuloendothelial system but also increase iron utilization in diabetic hemodialysis patients with iron overload. Therefore, IVAA is a potential adjuvant therapy to treat erythropoeitin-hyporesponsive anemia in iron-overloaded patients. 相似文献

Three cases of epidural hematoma with delayed clinical course are presented. In each patient, computed tomography (CT) initially failed to show typical biconvex, high density extra-axial lesion. The correct diagnosis was reached only after injection of contrast medium revealed enhancement of the border of the hematoma. Importance of contrast enhancement in selected patients with head injury is stress, and the mechanism of rim enhancement is discussed. 相似文献

In the present study, we have evaluated the relationship between serum ferritin (SF) levels, 'hemochromatosis allele(s)', blood transfusions and iron parenteral administration in 69 hemodialysis patients. We demonstrated significantly higher SF levels in patients with hemochromatosis allele(s) (HA+) than in patients without hemochromatosis alleles (HA-). In addition, HA+ patients who had received blood transfusions up to 15 months prior to the study had SF levels even higher than those without blood transfusions. On the other hand, HA- patients had normal levels of SF, independent of blood transfusions. After intravenous administration of 1 g iron saccharate, SF levels were significantly higher only in HA+ transfused patients. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that HA+ patients are at a higher risk of iron overload and therefore the use of transfusional and/or parenteral iron should be strictly limited. 相似文献
