Abstract:
Objective To study the clinical characteristics of gynura segetum induced hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (HSOS).Methods From July 2008 to October 2016,a total of 115 cases of gynura segetum caused HSOS were retrospectively analyzed.The history of taking gynura segetum before disease onset was recorded and epidemiologic data of main clinical symptoms,clinical manifestations,laboratory examinations,imaging and pathological features were observed.Results Among the 115 cases of HSOS,there were 113 patients with abdominal pain,106 with anorexia and 42 with jaundice sclera.A total of 108 patients displayed increased serum total bilirubin,41 of them only with mildly increased total bilirubin.There were 29 patients with albumin lower than 30 g/L,64 patients with prolonged prothrombin time (PT) and PT of 11 patients was prolonged for more than three seconds.Meanwhile,31 patients were with prolonged activated partial prothrombin time (APTT).A total of 60 patients had low platelet count.And 92 patients underwent ultrasound examination,among them,71 patients had enlarged liver size,79 patients with uneven internal echo of liver,70 patients with ascites,14 patients with patchy low echo tissue around hepatic venous.A total of 60 patient accepted computed tomography (CT) examination,and all of them had ascites,14 patients with mildly enlarged spleen and eight patients with gastro-esophageal varices.The results of CT plain scan indicated hepatomegaly,decreased liver density,map-like changes of patchy low density in delayed phase,heterogeneous enhancement of liver parenchyma in arterial phase,compression and deformation of liver segment of inferior vena cava and halo sign around venous portal vein.The results of pathological examination demonstrated the widening of hepatic sinusoid with hemorrhage and congestion,destruction of liver plate in zone Ⅲ area.There were seven patients who received hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) measurement which were all significantly increased.Conclusions The characteristics of patients with gynura segetum caused HSOS are abdominal pain,anorexia and jaundice;mildly increased serum total bilirubin and albumim liver enlargement,slow blood velocity of portal vein and splenic veim increased HVPG,hepatic sinus congestion and cell coagulation necrosis in zone Ⅲ area.
