Risk factors of early rebleeding after endoscopic variceal ligation and/or endoscopic injection of fibrin tissue adhesive / 中华消化内镜杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the independent risk factors of early rebleeding after endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL) and/or endoscopic injection of fibrin tissue adhesive.Methods Data of 370 patients who had cirrhosis and accepted 396 procedures of EVL and/or endoscopic injection of fibrin tissue adhesive were retrospectively studied.Independent risk factors for early rebleeding were determined by Logistic regression analysis.Results Results of all the factors that were significantly different between the re-bleeding and non-rebleeding patients,the portal vein diameter,ascites volume,Child-Pugh score and serum albumin were independent ones of early rebleeding after EVL and/or endoscopic injection of fibrin tissue adhesive ( P ＜ 0.05).Larger volume of ascites,wider portal vein diameter,reduced albumin,Child-Pugh score greater than 10 were indicative factors of rebleeding.Conclusion The early rebleeding rate after EVL and/or endoscopic injection of fibrin tissue adhesive is determined by portal vein diameter,ascites volume,ChildPugh score,and serum albumin.
