Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of compound Danshen injection combined with prostaglandin E1 low molecular weight heparin calcium to dextran-40 preventing hepatic veno-occlusive disease (HVOD) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).
METHODSA total of 520 patients who received HSCT in the authors' hospital from May 1998 and December 2009 were subjected, among whom 231 patients received autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation, 125 received HLA-identical sibling HSCT, 49 received HLA-identical/mismatched unrelated HSCT and 115 received HLA-haplotype HSCT. All patients were treated by intravenous dripping of CSI 40-60 mL, dextran-40 250-500 mL, prostaglandin-E1 40-60 microg, and subcutaneous injection of low molecular weight heparin calcium 3 000-5 000 IU every day, the preventive effect on HVOD after HSCT was observed.
RESULTSHVOD occurred and caused death only in 1 case of the 520 patients observed, the incidence was 0.19%. Neither obvious adverse reaction nor coagulation disorder was found.
CONCLUSIONCompound Danshen Injection combined with prostaglandin E1, low molecular weight heparin calcium and dextran-40 is a safe and effective protocol for the prevention of HVOD after HSCT.
