Comparison of intervertional devascularization and surgical devascularization in treatment of upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage for portal hypertensive / 中华放射学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of intervertional devascularization and surgical devascularization in treatment of patients with upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage .Methods Ninety-nine cases treated with intervertional devaacularization or surgical devascularization were retrospectively studied including 48 cases in intervertional group and 51 cases in surgical group.The postoperative resection, complications and rebleeding time were compared by X2 test and t test between two methods.Results The 12 months, 24 months and 36 months cumulative rebleeding rates after intervertional devascularization were 12.5% (6/47) ,24.5% (11/45), 27.9% (12/43) respectively.The rate after surgical devaacularization were 29.2% (14/48) ,44.7% (21/47), 48.9% (22/45) respectively.There were statistically significant differences between the intervertional and surgical groups (X2=3.843,4.150,4.083, P < 0.05).The complications of intervertional devascularization included fever 85.4% (41/48), bellyache 81.3% (39/48), portalvein thrombosis 4.2% (2/48), intraabdominal hemorrhage 2.1% (1/48), infection 2.1% (1/48) and death 2.1% (1/48).The complications of surgical devaacularization included fever 68.6% (35/51), bellyache 62.7% (32/51), generous hydroperitoneum 25.5% (13/51), portalvein thrombosis 37.3% (19/51), splenic vein thrombosis 11.8% (6/51), hepatic encephalopathy 3.9% (2/51), hepatorenal syndrome 2.0% (1/51), intraabdominal hemorrhage 2.0% (1/51), death 3.9% (2/51) and infection 15.7% (8/51).There were statistically significant differences of fever, bellyache, generous hydroperitoneum, portalvein thrombosis, splenic vein thrombosis between the intervertional and surgical groups(X2=4.174,3.098,16.199,6.011,5.536,14.085,P <0.05).Conclusions The intervertional devascularization procedure is simple, safe and effective method for treating upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage for portal hypertensive.The clinical effect is better than that of surgical devascularization.
