Résumé
Ohjective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) in the treatment of sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS) caused by gynura segetum.Methods The clinical data of 9 patients with SOS caused by gynura segetum (5 males and 4 females) who underwent TIPS were retrospectively analyzed from February 2017 to June 2018.The Child-Pugh scores were (9.5 ± 1.3) and the MELD scores were (12.5 ± 5.0).The success rates,complications and follow-up results were evaluated.Results TIPS was performed successfully in all the 9 patients.The portal venous pressure gradient dropped from (22.4 ± 2.7) mmHg to (10.4 ± 3.2) mmHg (P < 0.05).There was no complication such as abdominal hemorrhage and biliary peritonitis.Nine patients were followed-up for 1 ~17months,mean 7.8 ± 6.0 months.One month after treatment,the Child-Pugh scores were (7.1 ± 1.8),compared with that of the preoperative scores,the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05).The MELD scores were (5.3 ± 4.6),compared with that of the preoperative scores,the difference was also statistically significant (P < 0.05).At the end point of the follow-up,color Doppler ultrasound and portal CTA showed that the TIPS shunt was patent and hepatic congestion was relieved in all the 9 patients.All patients were alive.Conclusion TIPS was a safe and efficacious treatment for SOS caused by gynura segetum.
Résumé
Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of Viabahn covered stent in treatment of hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm (HAPA) caused by surgery.Methods Clinical data of 7 patients with postoperative massive intra-abdominal hemorrhage and diagnosed as HAPA with emergency angiography were collected from November 2015 to May 2016.All the patients underwent Viabahn covered stent implantation.Perioperative and postoperative clinical data of the patients were recorded,and with 1-month follow-up.Results All the 7 cases were diagnosed as extrahepatic HAPA and successfully completed Viabahn covered stent procedure,and curative rate was up to 100%.One case experienced transient vasospasm in the hepatic artery proximal to the stent.All the patients repeated hepatic artery CT angiography scans one week after surgery,with no evidence of bleeding.With 1-month follow-up,all the patients were in stable conditions.Conclusion Viabahn covered stent is minimally invasive,simple and effective interventional approach for HAPA.
