ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the relationship between the diameter of portal vein and esophagogastric variceal bleeding and the severity of liver cirrhosis by CT portal venography ( CTPV). To analyze the occurence about esophagogastric variceal bleeding under in different liver cirrhosis degree. Methods 60 patients of portal hyperten-sion with liver cirrhosis and 15 healthy volunteers (controls). According to Child-Pugh classification, 60 patients were divided into Child-Pugh A,B and C groups,According to the patients whether the esophagogastric variceal bleeding or not, it was divided into two groups that esophagogastric variceal bleeding (EVB) and no EVB. All of patients underwent with 64-slice spiral CT. Image post-processing techniques such as MIP, VR, MPR and SSD were applied to measuring the diameters of portal venous system vessels and depict the portosystemic collaterals of portal venous system. Results The diameters of the right branch of portal vein and super mesenteric vein were no statisti-cal significance between bleeding group and no bleeding group. The rest parameters of portal system in EVB group are all larger than those of no EVB group(P<0.05). Age and gender in two groups had no statistic significance. All diameters of portal system in cirrhotic group were all larger than those of control group(P<0.05). In different liver function,there are differences in each groups of diameter. The bleeding rate of different groups according to he-patic function showed statistical significance(P <0.05), higher the degree of liver cirrhosis, higher the bleeding rate. Conclusion The diameters of portal system in EVB group are larger than no EVB. All diameters of portal sys-tem in cirrhotic group are all larger than those of control group. There is difference the diameter of vascular in differ-ent hepatic function. Different degree of liver cirrhosis can predict the esophagogastric variceal bleeding.
