Abstract:
Objectives To study the effect of preoperative platelet transfusion for splenectomy and devascularization in the prevention of intraoperative and postoperative bleeding.Methods The 230 patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension who received splenectomy and periesophagogastric davascularization were divided into strata A,B and C according to the platelet counts.Stratum A patients had a platelet count of less than 30× 10/L,B between 30× 10/L and 50× 109/L,and C more than 50 × 109/L.The patients in each stratum were then randomly divided into a preoperative transfusion group (T group) and a non-transfusion group (NT group).The amounts of intraoperative bleeding,postoperative drainage in 48 hours after operation,rates of postoperative bleeding,and general medical conditions were compared.Results A comparison in stratum A showed lower amounts of intraoperative bleeding and 48 hour postoperative drainage,and a lower rate of bleeding in the T group (P＜0.05).There were no significant differences between the T and the NT groups in strata B and C (P＞0.05).Conclusions For patients with a platelet count lower than 30 × 109/L,preoperative platelet transfusion significantly reduced bleeding suggesting that preoperative platelet transfusion for splenectomy and periesophagogastric devascularization should be a routine.For those patients whose platelet count was above 30 × 109/L,platelet transfusion is not recommended.
