Abdominal incision infection occurred in one patient. Tweenty cases were followed up for one month to forty five months. Lower extremity varicose veins and abdomen wall varicose veins basically disappeared a month postoperatively; ascites vanished completely 3 months postoperatively,and lower limb ulcer healed 6 months postoperatively. Seventeen patients followed by CDFI showed that no thrombus was found in their artificial vessel. Barium meal studies in 12 cases displayed that oesophageal varicose veins had basically disappeared during the follow up period.
