Short-term portal hemodynamic effects of partial splenic embolization for hypersplenism.

摘要: BACKGROUND/AIMS The purpose of this study was to investigate the short-term effects partial splenic embolization (PSE) for hypersplenism on portal hemodynamics and liver function. METHODOLOGY Thirty-seven patients with were included in study. RESULTS wedged hepatic venous pressure before after PSE 39 +/- 10 33 8 cmH2O, respectively, showing significant change (p < 0.01). flow volumes vein 477 200 319 +/-187 mL/min, also 0.05). However, 713 284 684 152 no change. blood laboratory parameters showed PSE. damaged neither volume nor function, although it improved local hyperdynamic state area thrombocytopenia. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, is a safe effective treatment from hemodynamic point view.
