RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the effect of autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplanta-tion combined with CD34 + cells and oral sarpogrelate hydrochloride for the treatment of vascular reconstruc-tion and blood supply on the thromboangiitis obliterans. Methods Thromboangiitis obliterans ( TAO) of 262 patients with 262 lower limbs were divided into stem cells CD34 + cells transplantation combined with sarpogrelate hydrochloride group ( group A) with 100 lower limbs, CD34 + stem cell transplantation group ( group B) with 91 lower limbs, and sarpogrelate hydrochloride oral group ( group C) with 71 lower limbs. The degree of lower limb local blood flow variability were calculated at the three levels of skin, blood vessels and blood by preoperative and postoperative use of multi-function monitoring instrument, Doppler detector, transcutaneous oxygen pressure monitor, and digital subtraction angiography ( DSA) , respectively. Results⑴ The degree of shank, foot cyanosis, cool skin, and pain was relieved significantly in groups A and B than in group C for 1 month after the treatment (P<0. 05). ⑵Intermittent claudication distance, the skin temperature of the lower leg and foot to patients in the groups A and B than in group C, with a significant difference (F=7. 01, F=7. 04, P<0. 05) for 3 months after the treatment. ⑶ Among the patients with amputation, 10 cases were in group A, 16 cases in group B, and 31 cases in group C for 6 months after the treatment. ⑷ Transcutaneous oxygen pressure was increased from ( 30. 43 ± 4. 31 ) mmHg to ( 37. 21 ± 9. 01)mmHg (F=5. 69, P<0. 05), ankle brachial index from (0. 32 ±0. 23) to (0. 91 ± 0. 16) (F=6. 71, P<0. 05), the volume of blood flow index from the photoelectric (0. 22 ± 0. 04) to (0. 83 ± 0. 13 (F=5. 69, P<0. 05), oxygen saturation from (42. 41 ±9. 61)% to (79. 61 ±20. 34)% (F=5. 74, P<0. 05), and DSA score (0. 23 ± 0. 03) increased to (1. 35 ± 0. 23) (F=7. 14, P<0. 05), which was sig-nificantly higher than group B and group C ( F=7. 01, F=7. 04, F=7. 12, F=7. 08, F=7. 15, P<0. 05) for one year after treatment. Conclusions Treatment of peripheral blood stem cells CD34 + cell transplantation combined with oral sarpogrelate hydrochloride can significantly improve the vascular regener-ation and its blood supply in TAO lower extremity limb.
