【Abstract】ObjectiveTo inquire the therapeutic effect of retroperitoneal splenic autotransplantation combined with lower esophageal transection in the treatment of hepatic cirrhosis induced portal hypertension with randomized comparasion.
MethodsThe hepatic cirrhosis induced portal hypertension patients with Child A or B grade of liver function were randomly divided into splenic autotransplantation group and splenectomy group.In the splenic autotransplantation group, retroperitoneal transplantation of pedicled autosplenic tissue combined with modified lower esophageal transection was performed,while in the splenectomy group, splenectomy combined with modified lower esophageal transection was conducted.The general conduction, splenic scanning, liver function, serum tuftsin and IgM levels in patients were observed 2 to 6 months after operation, and compared with those before operation.
ResultsOne patient died in the splenectomy group on the 6th postoperative day, rebleeding occurred in one case of the splenic autotransplantation group. The levels of tuftsin and IgM in splenic autotransplantation group were higher than those of splenectomy group after operation, with significant difference (P<0.01). The liver function between two groups showed no difference (P gt;0.05).
ConclusionSpleen autografts could maintain the basic immune function of spleen and survive for a long time.
