A Randomized Controlled Study on the Treatment of Cirrhosis Combined With Hypersplenism

Summary

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of partial splenic artery embolization combined with endoscopic treatment and endoscopic treatment alone on portal hypertension in cirrhosis with hyperplenism or splenomegaly in esophageal and gastric varices.

Conditions

• Liver Cirrhosis
• Esophageal and Gastric Varices
• Hypersplenism

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Endoscopic therapy+ beta blockers

Endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL) is for the secondary prophylaxis of esophageal variceal hemorrhage,and Cyanoacrylate injection is for gastric varices (GV).A standard dose of NSBB (carvedilol) was applied to patients according to the Baveno VI recommendations if there were no contraindications.

PROCEDURE

Endoscopic therapy+ PSE+beta blockers

Endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL) is for the secondary prophylaxis of esophageal variceal hemorrhage,and Cyanoacrylate injection is for gastric varices (GV).A standard dose of NSBB (carvedilol) was applied to patients according to the Baveno VI recommendations if there were no contraindications.Partial splenic embolization (PSE) is one of the intra-arterial therapeutic approaches to embolize 60-80% splenic blood flow.

PROCEDURE

Endoscopic therapy+Somatostatin

The first dose of 250 was injected intravenously, followed by a continuous iv infusion of 250 for 3-5 days. Endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL) is for the acute bleeding of esophageal variceal hemorrhage,and Cyanoacrylate injection is for gastric varices (GV).
