Abstract:
Objective To investigate the application of ultrasonic examination for patients with liver cirrhosis after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) in the stents in artificial channel (SIAC) and portal vein (PV).Methods The clinical data of 28 patients who were admitted into our hospital from January 2013 to February 2017 and received TIPS were analyzed.Scanned the stents in artificial channel and portal vein and their inner diameter through transabdominal probe,and then measured the blood flow velocity by doppler.ResultsAfter TIPS,the SIAC of cirrhosis patients showed parallel tubular high echo,smooth wall and clear vessel lumen.And the inner diameter of SIAC was (5.93±0.76)mm,the blood flow velocity was (97.14±28.46)cm/s,and the 95% reference value was 4.45 mm~7.41 mm and 41.36~152.92 cm/s respectively.And the inner diameter of PV was (12.40 mm±2.90)mm,the blood flow velocity was (38.33 cm±16.01)cm/s,and the 95% reference value was 6.72~18.08 mm and 22.32~49.34 cm/s respectively.Conclusion Ultrasonography can give objective evaluation of whether SIAC and PV is unobstructed after TIPS,and it can get their parameters of inner diameter and velocity.As a result, ultrasonography can be regard as a perfect means for follow-up checkup.
