Abstract: Objective To explore the influence of porcine esophageal variceal pressure on complete ligation for polycyclic ligator in vitro.Methods The experimental porcine venous vessels were selected to make the models of different venous pressure,which were divided into 3 groups according to the preset pressure range,P1 group 25-30 cmH2O(1 cmH2O =0.098 KPa),P2 group 35-40 cmH2O,P3 group 45-50 cmH2O.Ligation effects of each group were analysed.Results There were 75 complete ligations (47.77％,75/157) in group P1,41 in group P2 (32.28％,41/127),and 29 in group P3 (23.58％,29/123).There were significant differences among the three groups (x2 =19.558 5,P =0.000 6).Conclusion The higher the variceal pressure is,the worse the effect of ligation is.Variceal pressure could predict the effect of endoscopic ligation,and is helpful for the choice of endoscopic treatment.
