BACKGROUND/AIM: Variceal bleeding is the most life-threating complication in liver cirrhosis. The aim of this study was to analyze the sources of gastroesophageal bleeding in patients with liver cirrhosis and to ascertain the risk factors of bleeding from esophageal varices. METHODS: This prospective study included 52 patients with liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension. Severity of liver dysfunction according to Child's classification, coagulation parameters, and endoscopic findings were analyzed. In patients with varices we analyzed the size, color, location of varices, and the presence of red signs. The varices were classified as small, medium and large. RESULTS: Esophageal varices were found in 76.9% of the patients. Isolated varices were present in 36.6%, and associated with other findings in 40.3%. Small varices were present in 10%, medium in 25% and large in 65% patients. Of them 55% had variceal bleeding. Variceal bleeding was present in 50% of the patients with medium and in 65.38% of the patients with large varices. There was no bleeding in the patients with small varices. Endoscopy revealed red signs before bleeding in 85% of the patients with large varices. There was a higher incidence of variceal bleeding in the Child's group B. There were no significant differences (p > 0.05) in the coagulation parameters in patients with and without variceal bleeding. Rebleeding was present in 86.36% of the patients. Most of them (52.63%) were rebleeding between 7 weeks and 12 months after the first episode of variceal bleeding. In the patients with the most severe hepatocellular dysfunction (Child's group C) the period between the first bleeding and rebleeding was the shortest (mean, 20.8 days). CONCLUSION: Our study revealed that esophageal varices are the most frequent sources of bleeding in the patients with liver cirrhosis. There is the association between the first bleeding and large varices and the red signs. Coagulation disorders and hepatic dysfunction were not related to the initial episode of variceal bleeding. The risk of early rebleeding was higher in the patients with severe hepatic dysfunction (Child's class C). 相似文献

Angiographic treatment of gastrointestinal hemorrhage: comparison of vasopressin infusion and embolization 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
The results of selective intraarterial vasopressin-infusion therapy and embolization therapy were compared in two groups of patients with major gastrointestinal hemorrhage. The site of bleeding, clinical course, complications, and transfusion requirements were evaluated in each group. Intraarterial vasopressin infusion therapy resulted in successful control of hemorrhage in 16 (70%) of 23 patients. Four patients, however, rebled and an operation was necessary, reducing the overall success rate to 52% (12 of 23). In the group treated with embolization therapy, primary success was achieved in 17 (71%) of 24 patients. Four patients in whom initial embolization failed to control bleeding underwent repeat embolization and in all four permanent control of hemorrhage was obtained, producing an overall success rate of 21 (88%) of 24. Analysis of our results according to site of hemorrhage suggests that at certain sites embolization is a preferred method of treatment; embolization allows earlier control of gastrointestinal hemorrhage and a reduction in transfusion requirements. 相似文献

Angiographic therapy to control gastric bleeding was attempted in 200 patients. One hundred ninety-four patients were treated with intraarterial vasopressin and 17 of them were also treated with transcatheter embolization. Six patients underwent primary embolization, and an additional six received intravenous vasopressin. The initial rate of bleeding control in all patients angiographically treated was 73%. When embolization was used in some of the patients who did not respond to vasopressin, the overall control rate increased to 79%. Recurrent bleeding occurred in 18%. When angiographic therapy was attempted again in the patients with recurrent hemorrhage, the bleeding was stopped in 36%. Major complications occurred in 6.5% and minor in 17.5%. Of the patients with bleeding that was angiographically controlled, 73% survived and 27% died of associated clinical conditions. Among the failures of angiographic therapy, 48% died during the same hospital admission. Intraarterial infusions of vasopressin or transcatheter embolization are useful for the control of gastric bleeding. 相似文献

Emergency embolization of spontaneous ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma: correlation between survival and Child-Pugh classification 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
From February 1994 to April 2000, 29 emergency gelfoam embolizations for spontaneous ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) performed in 28 patients were retrospectively reviewed. There were 11 patients in Child's A, 11 in Child's B and six in Child's C classification of cirrhosis. The duration of the procedure, artery embolized and complications were reviewed, and the Child-Pugh classification of each patient was correlated with their mean survival period. Embolization was done in 12 right hepatic arteries, two left hepatic arteries and 15 proper hepatic arteries. In one patient, the left hepatic artery was embolized initially but the proper hepatic artery was also embolized because another subcapsular liver tumour was found after reviewing the preangiogram CT scan. The entire procedure took 40-170 min (mean = 86 min) with no periprocedural complication. Following embolization, the mean survival period for Child's A class was 218.3 days, Child's B class was 83.4 days and Child's C class was 11.0 days. Transcatheter embolization is an effective treatment to arrest bleeding in spontaneous ruptured HCC. Patients with Child's A class cirrhosis have the longest survival. Selective embolization of either the right or the left hepatic artery alone carries the potential risk of missing multifocal HCC that might not be easily appreciated during angiography. 相似文献

Ethanol thrombotherapy of esophageal varices: further experience 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Fifty patients with liver cirrhosis (13 Child class B, 37 class C) were treated for variceal hemorrhage during a 3-year period using the transhepatic selective catheterization and injection of absolute ethanol. Technical failure of the procedure was encountered in 13 instances. The causes were the presence of massive ascites and rigidly contracted liver, cavernous transformation of the main portal vein, and severe coagulopathy. Of the 13 failures, 12 were in Child class C and one in class B. Of 37 initially successfully treated patients, 13 rebled subsequently. Nine of these were Child class C and four were class B. Rebleeding was fatal in five of nine class C patients. Rebleeding was due to recanalization of previously thrombosed access channel in two of 13 patients. Nine patients died, despite successful thrombosis of varices, due to underlying medical conditions. Fifteen patients survived 6 months or more after initial thrombosis without rebleeding. Child class B patients are better candidates for this treatment technique because more favorable treatment results are expected in them. Child class C patients with massive ascites and severely contracted and rigid liver pose a significant technical challenge, but in about one-third, successful control of variceal bleeding can be achieved. Most of those who survived more than 6 months showed varying degrees of improvement in clinical signs and symptoms. 相似文献

PurposeTo investigate the safety and effectiveness of emergent transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) as first-line therapy in patients with advanced cirrhosis with acute variceal hemorrhage.Materials and MethodsFrom July 2016 to June 2019, 76 patients with advanced cirrhosis and acute variceal hemorrhage were included in this retrospective study. All patients underwent emergent TIPS as first-line therapy within 24 hours. Gastroesophageal varices in patients with cirrhosis were diagnosed with contrast-enhanced computed tomography because emergent endoscopy has not been routinely performed in this center. The primary outcomes were the control rate of bleeding and the rate of rebleeding. Secondary outcomes were the technical success rate of procedure, transplantation-free survival, the mean hospitalization time, the time of stay in the intensive care unit, and adverse events.ResultsAll patients underwent TIPS creation successfully and were transferred to general wards. The median follow-up time was 21.7 months (interquartile range, 12.6–28.1 months). The control rate of bleeding (≤5 days) was 100%. The rates of early (>5 days to 6 weeks) and late (>6 weeks to 2 years) rebleeding were 6.6% and 1.3%, respectively. The 6-week, 1-year, and 2-year transplantation-free survival rates were 94.7%, 93.4%, and 84.6%, respectively. The incidences of acute liver failure, hepatic encephalopathy, and shunt dysfunction were 5.3%, 25%, and 5.3%, respectively.ConclusionsEmergent TIPS as a first-line therapy in patients with advanced cirrhosis with acute variceal hemorrhage is safe and effective. This study provides an alternative approach for medical centers without emergent endoscopy facility to manage the condition. 相似文献

Percutaneous transhepatic embolization of varices (PTEV) has proved to be effective in the control variceal bleeding, particularly
in Child's Class C Category patients whose bleeding was not adequately controlled by pitressin perfusions. PTEV, using Gelfoam
soaked in sodium tetradecyl sulfate, controlled acute variceal bleeding in 71–95% of patients and appears to be more effective
as an embolizing agent than bucrylate, which controlled 43–57%.
Considering the poor condition of the patients particularly during acute bleeding episodes, PTEV is a relatively safe therapeutic
procedure that buys time for the surgeons to perform a decompressive shunt electively as definitive surgery. A one-year recurrent
bleeding rate of 30% and a two year recurrence of 37.5% was noted. Thus, for long term control of variceal bleeding, a surgical
decompressive shunt is recommended in addition to PTEV. 相似文献

Minilaparotomy and direct catheterization of the mesenteric vein for variceal embolization was attempted in 15 patients in whom medical and endoscopic treatment of variceal hemorrhage had failed. Hemorrhage was controlled immediately after the procedure in 11 patients. The 30-day survival rate was 60% (n = 9). The cause of death in six patients was variceal bleeding (n = 2), liver failure (n = 3), and respiratory failure (n = 1). The 6-month survival rate was 33% (n = 5), and the 1-year survival rate was 27% (n = 4). Bleeding recurred in 67% of surviving patients; however, fatal variceal bleeding occurred in only 22% (n = 2). Direct mesenteric vein catheterization allows simplified entry into the portal vein for embolization of bleeding esophageal or gastric varices. Early experience suggests that the results are similar to those of percutaneous transhepatic embolization, without the complications and technical demands of a transhepatic approach. 相似文献

The transcatheter method appropriate for use in the control of arteriocapillary gastrointestinal bleeding is a point of controversy.
Intraarterial vasopressin infusion, which has been performed in more than 500 patients at the Massachusetts General Hospital,
has achieved control in 90% of patients actively bleeding from the stomach and colon. In view of the severity of hemorrhage
and associated illnesses in these patients, the complication rate associated with this method was low. Intraarterial vasopressin
infusions were ineffective in pyloroduodenal and postoperative bleeding sites and hemorrhage from abscesses. While embolization
can control bleeding in these areas, complications have been shown despite precise selective catheter placement. Because of
catheterization difficulties and the permanency of the vascular occlusion, embolization is reserved for patients in whom surgical
intervention would be associated with extreme risks. 相似文献

Recent variceal bleeding: Doppler US hepatic vein waveform in assessment of severity of portal hypertension and vasoactive drug response 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Baik SK Kim JW Kim HS Kwon SO Kim YJ Park JW Kim SH Chang SJ Lee DK Han KH Um SH Lee SS 《Radiology》2006,240(2):574-580
PURPOSE: To prospectively evaluate both the correlation between abnormal Doppler ultrasonography (US) hepatic vein waveforms and the hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) and the response to drug treatment in patients with cirrhosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ethics committee approval and informed consent of patients and control subjects were obtained. In 78 patients with cirrhosis (70 men, eight women; mean age, 49.4 years +/- 9.7 [standard deviation]) and a history of variceal bleeding, both the hepatic vein waveform--as measured with Doppler US--and the HVPG were measured, and the relationship between them was analyzed. Hepatic vein Doppler waveforms were classified as triphasic, biphasic, or monophasic. Severe portal hypertension was defined as an HVPG of more than 15 mm Hg. In a subgroup of 21 patients, changes in hepatic vein waveform and HVPG were evaluated after intravenous administration of 2 mg of terlipressin. Statistical analyses were performed with Spearman rank correlation, logistic regression analysis, and cross tabulation. RESULTS: Abnormal hepatic vein waveforms were seen in 72 patients (92%). Forty-four patients (56%) had biphasic waveforms, 28 (36%) had monophasic waveforms, and six (8%) had triphasic waveforms. A positive correlation was found between the extent of abnormalities in hepatic vein waveforms and the increase in HVPG (P < .05). Monophasic waveforms were associated with severe portal hypertension, with a sensitivity of 74% and a specificity of 95%. Twenty patients in the terlipressin subgroup had abnormal baseline waveforms; the baseline waveform improved in 18 patients in association with the HVPG reduction after injection of terlipressin. CONCLUSION: Doppler US hepatic vein waveform assessment is useful in the noninvasive evaluation of the severity of portal hypertension and the response to vasoactive drugs in patients with portal hypertension and variceal bleeding. 相似文献

Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt (TIPS): Current Status and Future Possibilities 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Bilbao JI Quiroga J Herrero JI Benito A 《Cardiovascular and interventional radiology》2002,25(4):251-269
Since the insertion of the first TIPS in 1989 much
has been learned about this therapeutic procedure. It has an established role
for the treatment of some complications of portal hypertension: prevention of
recurrent variceal bleeding and rescue of patients with acute uncontrollable
variceal bleeding. In addition TIPS is useful for Budd-Chiari syndrome,
refractory ascites and hepatorenal syndrome, although its specific role in
these indications remains to be definitively established. However, the decrease
in sinusoidal blood flow induced by TIPS can lead to the patient developing
hepatic encephalopathy and liver failure in some cases. Therefore, TIPS should
be used with caution in patients with very poor liver function. From a
technical point of view, successful placement of TIPS is achieved in more than
98% of cases by experienced groups. At present, evaluation of TIPS dysfunction
based on morphology probably leads to an overdiagnosis of this complication
since most of these cases are not associated with clinical manifestations
(recurrent bleeding or refractory ascites). The major disadvantage of TIPS
remains its poor long-term patency requiring a mandatory surveillance program.
The indicator for shunt function/malfunction should be the portosystemic
pressure gradient, which is best assessed by intravascular measurements. Shunt
obstructions may be prevented or reduced by the use of stent-grafts in the
future. 相似文献

TIPS versus transcatheter sclerotherapy for gastric varices 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Ninoi T Nakamura K Kaminou T Nishida N Sakai Y Kitayama T Hamuro M Yamada R Arakawa T Inoue Y 《AJR. American journal of roentgenology》2004,183(2):369-376
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of our study was to compare the efficacy and long-term results of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) with those of transcatheter sclerotherapy for the treatment of gastric varices. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 139 cirrhotic patients with gastric varices underwent endovascular treatment. Of the 139 patients, 104 without hepatocellular carcinoma were enrolled; 27 patients were treated with TIPS, and 77 patients with transcatheter sclerotherapy. Bleeding of gastric varices and survival rates were compared between the TIPS and transcatheter sclerotherapy groups. Multivariate analysis was used to identify the prognostic factors for gastric variceal bleeding and survival. Changes in liver function were evaluated in each group. RESULTS: The cumulative gastric variceal bleeding rate at 1 year was 20% in the TIPS group and 2% in the transcatheter sclerotherapy group (p < 0.01). The prognostic factor associated with gastric variceal bleeding was the treatment method. The cumulative survival rates at 1, 3, and 5 years were, respectively, 81%, 64%, and 40% in the TIPS group and 96%, 83%, and 76% in the transcatheter sclerotherapy group (p < 0.01). The prognostic factors for survival were the treatment method and the Child-Pugh classification of liver disease. For patients categorized in Child-Pugh class A, the survival rate was higher in the transcatheter sclerotherapy group than in the TIPS group (p < 0.01). For patients in Child-Pugh classes B and C, no significant difference was seen between the two groups. Liver function tended to improve in the transcatheter sclerotherapy group. CONCLUSION: Transcatheter sclerotherapy may provide better control of gastric variceal bleeding than TIPS. Transcatheter sclerotherapy may contribute to a higher survival rate than TIPS in patients with Child-Pugh class A disease. 相似文献

Objective
To assess the feasibility of balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration (BRTO) in active gastric variceal bleeding, and to compare the findings with those of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS).Materials and Methods
Twenty-one patients with active gastric variceal bleeding due to liver cirrhosis were referred for radiological intervention. In 15 patients, contrast-enhanced CT scans demonstrated gastrorenal shunt, and the remaining six (Group 1) underwent TIPS. Seven of the 15 with gastrorenal shunt (Group 2) were also treated with TIPS, and the other eight (Group 3) underwent BRTO. All patients were followed up for 6 to 21 (mean, 14.4) months. For statistical inter-group comparison of immediate hemostasis, rebleeding and encephalopathy, Fisher''s exact test was used. Changes in the Child-Pugh score before and after each procedure in each group were statistically analyzed by means of Wilcoxon''s signed rank test.Results
One patient in Group 1 died of sepsis, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and persistent bleeding three days after TIPS, while the remaining 20 survived the procedure with immediate hemostasis. Hepatic encephalopathy developed in four patients (one in Group 1, three in Group 2, and none in Group 3); one, in Group 2, died while in an hepatic coma 19 months after TIPS. Rebleeding occurred in one patient, also in Group 2. Except for transient fever in two Group-3 patients, no procedure-related complication occurred. In terms of immediate hemostasis, rebleeding and encephalopathy, there were no statistically significant differences between the groups (p > 0.05). In Group 3, the Child-Pugh score showed a significant decrease after the procedure (p = 0.02).Conclusion
BRTO can effectively control active gastric variceal bleeding, and because of immediate hemostasis, the absence of rebleeding, and improved liver function, is a good alternative to TIPS in patients in whom such bleeding, accompanied by gastrorenal shunt, occurs. 相似文献18.

Background and Aims:Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is a well-established approach for the management of variceal bleeding, refractory ascites, hepatic hydrothorax, and preoperative treatment of portal hypertension prior to major abdominal surgery in patients with compensated cirrhosis, and so on. This study aimed to investigate the safety and long-term efficacy of TIPS implantation using Viatorr TIPS stent-grafts.Material and Methods:A cohort of 59 patients undergoing TIPS placement using Viatorr TIPS stent-grafts were included, and the periprocedural events, and long-term mortality, shunt dysfunction, variceal rebleeding and incidence of hepatic encephalopathy (HE) were analyzed.Results:The technical success rate was 100%. The median portosystemic pressure gradient was reduced from 21 mmHg (interquatile range: 19–25) to 13 mmHg (interquatile range: 10–16) before and after TIPS, leading to a hemodynamic success rate of 72.9%. The cumulative rate of overall mortality was 34.2% at five years, and direct bilirubin (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.336, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.050–1.700, P = 0.018) and post-TIPS right atrial pressure (HR = 1.238, 95% CI: 1.015–1.510, P = 0.035) were independent predictors for mortality. The cumulative rates of shunt dysfunction and variceal rebleeding were 11.0% and 28.3% at five years, respectively, and portal venous pressure gradient (HR = 2.572, 95% CI: 1.094–6.047, P = 0.030) was the only independent predictor for shunt dysfunction. The cumulative four-year HE-free rate was 48.6%. No severe adverse event was noted during TIPS procedures.Conclusion:Elective TIPS implantation using Viatorr TIPS stent-grafts is generally safe, and the long-term efficacy is favorable for the treatment of cirrhotic patients with recurrent variceal bleeding or refractory ascites. 相似文献

Objective
To evaluate the feasibility, safety, and clinical outcomes of plug-assisted retrograde transvenous obliteration (PARTO) to treat gastric variceal hemorrhage in patients with portal hypertension.Materials and Methods
From May 2012 to June 2014, 19 patients (11 men and 8 women, median age; 61, with history of gastric variceal hemorrhage; 17, active bleeding; 2) who underwent PARTO using a vascular plug and a gelfoam pledget were retrospectively analyzed. Clinical and laboratory data were examined to evaluate primary (technical and clinical success, complications) and secondary (worsening of esophageal varix [EV], change in liver function) end points. Median follow-up duration was 11 months, from 6.5 to 18 months. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to compare laboratory data before and after the procedure.Results
Technical success (complete occlusion of the efferent shunt and complete filling of gastric varix [GV] with a gelfoam slurry) was achieved in 18 of 19 (94.7%) patients. The embolic materials could not reach the GV in 1 patient who had endoscopic glue injection before our procedure. The clinical success rate (no recurrence of gastric variceal bleeding) was the same because the technically failed patient showed recurrent bleeding later. Acute complications included fever (n = 2), fever and hypotension (n = 2; one diagnosed adrenal insufficiency), and transient microscopic hematuria (n = 3). Ten patients underwent follow-up endoscopy; all exhibited GV improvement, except 2 without endoscopic change. Five patients exhibited aggravated EV, and 2 of them had a bleeding event. Laboratory findings were significantly improved after PARTO.Conclusion
PARTO is technically feasible, safe, and effective for gastric variceal hemorrhage in patients with portal hypertension. 相似文献20.
