Abstract:
Objective To study the effect of postoperative anticoagulant therapy after splenectomy in patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension.Methods One hundred and forty patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension receiving splenectomy and periesophagastric devascularization were divided into anticoagulant group (76 cases) and control group (64 cases) by random number table,patients in anticoagulant group received postoperative anticoagulant therapy,principally according to the platelet count,gave ligustrazine,aspirin,low molecular heparin after operation; patients in control group without postoperative anticoagulant therapy.Postoperative monitoring platelet count and D-dimer,ultrasound or CT check the presence of portal vein thrombosis.Results Platelet count,D-dimer levels in anticoagulant group and control group in 2 days after operation were significantly increased,the difference was significant compared with preoperative [anticoagulant group:(95.73 ± 28.06) × 109/L vs.(38.41 ± 11.96) × 109/L,(3.61 ± 0.18) mg/L vs.(0.42 ± 0.09) mg/L;control group:(92.56 ± 27.75) × 109/L vs.(35.13 ± 11.38) × 109/L,(3.26 ± 0.16) mg/L vs.(0.37 ± 0.09) mg/L,P < 0.05].Platelet count and D-dimer levels between two groups at preoperative and postoperative in 2 days had no statistical significance (P > 0.05).Ten cases of control group occurred postoperative portal vein thrombosis,anticoagulant group were 3 cases,portal vein thrombosis incidence of anticoagulant group [3.95% (3/76)] compared with control group [15.62%(10/64)] was statistically significant (P < 0.05).Conclusion Postoperative anticoagulant therapy after splenectomy in patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension is an effective method to prevent portal vein thrombosis.
