Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of acute and chronic gastrointestinal bleeding in patients with end-stage renal disease(ESRD)after kidney transplantation,to improve the understanding of the causes,diagnosis,treatment and prevention of this complication,and to improve the management of patients with gastrointestinal bleeding after kidney transplantation.Methods:The clini-cal,imaging and pathological data of patients with gastrointestinal bleeding after kidney transplantation in the Department of Urology of The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from August,2015 to December,2020 were collected.The etiology,early clinical manifestations,abnormal laboratory tests and examinations,treatment procedures,late prevention and treatment measures and outcomes of gastro-intestinal bleeding were retrospectively studied,and the relevant literature was summarized and reviewed.Results:A total of 17 patients were included in this study.Nine patients had chronic small amount of bleeding,hemoglobin gradually decreased,melena and fecal occult blood positive in the early stage,and the general condition was good,vital signs were stable,and were cured by drug treatment.Gastroscopy showed small ulcers with active bleeding foci in 2 cases,and the bleeding was stopped by titanium clips,and the prognosis was good.Gastroscopy showed that the anterior wall longitudinal ulcer at the junction of gastric antrum body was not effective in 1 case,and the small branch of right gastroepithelial artery was embolized,and the patient recovered and discharged after 2 weeks.Gastroscopy showed deep pit ulcer at the lesser curvature of gastric antrum in 1 patient,who underwent distal gastroduodenal artery emboliza-tion and had a good prognosis.Gastroscopy showed huge multiple ulcers in the stomach and duodenal bulb in 2 patients,who underwent subtotal gastrectomy and partial duodenectomy,duodenal stump exclu-sion and remnant gastrojejunostomy.One patient recovered and was discharged,and the other patient died of rebleeding on the 12th day after surgery.Two cases of diverticulum underwent surgical resection of diverticulum,and the prognosis was good.Conclusion:The onset of gastrointestinal hemorrhage in kidney transplant patients is insidious,and the condition is acute or slow,which can cause different de-grees of damage to the patient and the transplanted kidney.Active prevention,early diagnosis,timely drug treatment,if the effect is not good,decisive endoscopic titanium clip hemostasis,transvascular in-terventional embolization,and even surgical treatment can minimize the harm of gastrointestinal bleeding.
