Effects of chemical splanchic denervation in reversion of T-lymphocyte subtypes level in patients suffering intractable pain with pancreatic carcinoma / 中国癌症杂志

Purpose:To study the effects on T lymphocyte subtypes with chemical splanchic denervation for patients with pancreatic carcinoma and intractable pain.Methods:32 cases with advanced pancreatic carcinoma accepted chemical splanchic denervation-pure alcohol injection around celiac ganglion guided by B US to relieve the severe pain. The fasting peripheral blood concentration of CD + 3 ,CD + 4 ,CD + 8 and ? endorphin were determined before treatment ,3rd,7th,15th and 30th day after therapy. 38 healthy persons were taken as control group.Results:The percentage of CD + 3 ,CD + 4 ,CD 8+ cell were apparently decreased in patients with pancreatic carcinoma comparing with control group( P
