RESUMEN
Objective:To analyze the hepatic hemodynamics changes after partial splenic embolization in patients with cirrhosis and hypersplenism.Methods:A total of 26 patients with cirrhosis and hypersplenism who underwent partial splenic embolization in the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from April 2018 to June 2019 were included in this study. The clinical data was retrospectively studied. The study objects consisted of 19 males and 7 females with an average of 55 years. Whole-liver perfusion enhanced CT imaging scan was performed for all patients. Changes in laboratory indexes and the blood perfusion of the liver sections including hepatic arterial perfusion, portal venous perfusion, total liver perfusion and hepatic arterial perfusion indexes before PSE and postoperative 1 month were compared.Results:The postoperative leukocyte and platelet counts increased, and the prothrombin time decreased in the 26 patient, and the differences were significant ( P<0.05). The hepatic arterial perfusion of the left lateral section, left medial section, right anterior section and right posterior section increased in postoperative 1 month, from 10.0 (7.0, 13.5) ml·min -1·(100 ml) -1, 9.3 (5.4, 12.8) ml·min -1·(100 ml) -1, 8.0 (6.0, 11.2) ml·min -1·(100 ml) -1, 10.7 (7.1, 13.8) ml·min -1·(100 ml) -1 to 7.7 (4.2, 11.0) ml·min -1·(100 ml) -1, 6.9 (2.6, 10.2) ml·min -1·(100 ml) -1, 7.1 (4.1, 8.7) ml·min -1·(100 ml) -1, 5.9 (4.4, 8.5) ml·min -1·(100 ml) -1, respectively. The differences were all significantly different ( P<0.05). There were no significant difference in portal venous perfusion and total liver perfusion before and after operation ( P>0.05). The hepatic arterial perfusion index of left lateral section, right anterior section and right posterior section increased after operation ( P<0.05). Conclusion:For patients with cirrhosis and hypersplenism who underwent partial splenic embolization, the state of hypersplenism was relieved, the hepatic arterial blood flow increased, and the liver function improved.
