RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To compare gastric mucosal blood flow (GMBF) in normal subjects with that in patients with portal hypertension with or without portal hypertensive gastropathy (PHG). METHODS: GMBF was measured by endoscopic laser-Doppler velocimetry in 20 gastroscopically normal subjects and 30 patients with portal hypertension with or without PHG. The effects of breath-holding (vasomotor reflex), submucosal epinephrine and sublingual isosorbide dinitrate were also studied. RESULTS: In normal subjects, GMBF on the greater curvature was (mean +/- SD) 9.5 +/- 1.3 V and on the lesser curvature, 9.1 +/- 1.9 V. Breath-holding caused a reduction in GMBF by 57.1 +/- 13.7%, submucosal epinephrine reduced it by 41.5 +/- 21.5% and sublingual isosorbide caused a rise of 25.8 +/- 15.2%. The GMBF on the greater and lesser curvature respectively in patients with mild PHG (7.7 +/- 1.2 V and 7.7 +/- 0.8 V) and those with severe PHG (6.5 +/- 3.5 V and 6.3 +/- 2.2 V), was significantly less than that in normal subjects (p < 0.05 and p < 0.001 respectively). Vasomotor reflex was blunted in patients with mild and severe PHG (23.3% +/- 20.3 and 23.1% +/- 17.7 respectively, p < 0.001). Responses to submucosal epinephrine and sublingual isosorbide were similar to those recorded in normal subjects. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with portal hypertension have significantly reduced GMBF and significantly attenuated vasomotor reflex in the gastric vascular bed as compared to normal subjects.
