Abstract:
Objective To explore the short-term and long-term efficacy of partial splenic artery embolization(PSE)in the treat-ment of cirrhosis with hypersplenism.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 35 patients with cirrhosis and hyper-splenism who underwent PSE treatment.Data on white blood cell(WBC),red blood cell(RBC),platelet count(PLT),hemoglobin(HGB),total bilirubin(TBiL),albumin(ALB),prothrombin time(PT),and D-dimer were collected at the three time points:before surgery,1 week after surgery,and 1 year after surgery.The changes in these parameters across the three time points were observed and compared.One-way ANOVA was used for repeated measurements,and time pairwise comparisons were made between the three time points.According to the formation of portal thrombosis,patients were divided into thrombus group and no-thrombus group.The D-dimer values were compared before surgery and 1 week after surgery.Results WBC and PLT were significantly higher 1 week and 1 year after surgery than those before surgery,with the most significant increase 1 week after surgery,and there was also statistically sig-nificant difference between 1 week after surgery and 1 year after surgery(P1,P2,P3<0.05).There were no significant differences in RBC and HGB between 1 week after surgery and before surgery(RBC P1=0.835,HGB P1=0.446).However,RBC and HGB 1 year after surgery were significantly higher than those before surgery and 1 week after surgery(RBC P2=0.039,P3=0.015;HGB P2=0.001,P3=0.010).There were significant differences in TBiL,ALB,PT,and D-dimer 1 week after surgery compared with those before surgery(TBiL P1=0.006,ALB P1<0.001,PT P1=0.001,D-dimer P1<0.001),but there was no significant differ-ence between 1 year after surgery and before surgery(all P2>0.05).The D-dimer of the thrombus group was significantly higher than that of the no-thrombus group 1 week after surgery,with a statistical significance(P=0.024),however,there was no signifi-cant difference in D-dimer between the two groups before surgery.Conclusion PSE in the treatment of cirrhosis with hypersplenism shows positive short-term and long-term efficacy for WBC and PLT.The short-term increase of RBC and HGB is not obvious,however the long-term efficacy is significant.In the short-term after surgery,TBiL increase,ALB decrease,PT prolonge,and liver reserve function decrease,but there was no long-term effect.The increase of D-dimer after surgery can easily induce portal thrombosis,and anticoagulation therapy can be given in the short-term after surgery.
