Abstract:
Objective: To discuss the predictive value of liver and spleen stiffness detected by transientelasticity imaging technology on esophageal varices bleeding (EVB) of patients with hepatitis B cirrhosis. Methods: 100 patients with hepatitis B cirrhosis (18 cases were no EV, 30 cases were mild EV, 28 cases were moderate EV and 24 cases were severe EV) were selected. In these patients, 52 cases were no bleeding, 28 cases were single hemorrhage and 20 cases were multiple hemorrhage. As the Child-Pugh grading, there were 34 cases were A grade, 30 cases were B grade and 36 cases were C grade. All of the liver and spleen stiffness of these patients were detected by instantaneous elasticity imaging technology, and to compare different Child-Pugh grading of patients, different EV degree, and liver and spleen stiffness on different EVB situation. Results: The liver and spleen stiffness of patients in Child-Pugh C stage were significantly higher than that in Child-Pugh A stage and B stage, respectively (t=21.13, t=12.04, t=11.24, t=9.741; P<0.05). With the aggravating of the severe degree of EV, the liver and spleen stiffness were significant increasing, and there were significant differences between different EV degree patients for liver stiffness and spleen stiffness, respectively (F=7.494, F=8.129, P<0.05). The liver and spleen stiffness of multiple hemorrhage group were significant higher than that of no-hemorrhage group and single hemorrhage group, respectively (t=13.13, t=18.14, t=12.15, t=17.46; P<0.05). Conclusion: By using instantaneous elasticity imaging technology to detect liver and spleen stiffness can predict EVB of patient with hepatitis B cirrhosis and it has higher clinical value, therefore, it is a sophisticated noninvasive examination with simple operation and better repeatability.
