Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effciency of different embolic agents inducing the changes of the liver morphology and function in the selective portal vein embolization (PVE).Methods Forty five Spraque-Dawley rats were used in this experiment.Five were served as a control group and forty were randomly divided into 4 groups of 10 rats each.Right PVE was performed in each group by one of four different embolic agents respectively.Five rats from each group were sacrificed and dissected to inspect the morphological changes on 14th and 21st day after the procedure.The results of different groups were analyzed according to the weight ratios of the right lobe to the whole liver and the whole liver to the body,and the results were compared to each other and those of the control group using statistical Student“ t ”test. Results After the procedure,the embolized lobe was turned gray immediately with no significant differences between groups.Both on the 14th and 21st day after the procedure,the right lobe of the liver from the rats of group 1,2,3 were atrophied apparently with lots of spotty yellow scars in different sizes.There was no significant change of the embolized right lobe from group 4.By statistical analysis,the embolization using Lipiodol-ethanol 2∶1 mixture in group 2 resulted in better atrophy than group 1 ( P 0.05) and more than the gelfoam pieces ( P
