ObjectiveTo investigate the basic operation and treatment experiences of the surgical treatment of Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS). MethodsClinical data of 1 024 cases of BCS who received surgical treatment in our hospital from April 1994 to December 2013 were collected and analyzed. ResultsThere were 1 024 cases in our study, 116 cases of them underwent surgery, 908 cases of them underwent interventional surgery; 265 cases underwent inferior vena cava (IVC) balloon dilatation, 464 cases underwent IVC balloon dilatation and stenting, 97 cases underwent open surgery of hepatic vein (HV), 52 cases underwent right atrium femoral vein combined membrane rupture balloon dilation stent, 7 cases underwent caval shunt, 20 cases underwent radical surgery, 45 cases underwent IVC-right atrium bypass, 6 cases underwent intestinal cavity-real shunt, 9 cases underwent intestinal cavity-neck combined shunt, 30 cases underwent transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt, 29 cases underwent intestinal-line real shunt. There were 902 cases were followed-up for 1 day-19 years (13 years on average), and the application of many kinds of operation strictly and flexibly brought satisfactory results for cases of BCS. ConclusionsThe diagnosis and classification of BCS will help us to make safe, effective, and appropriate treatment plan. In addition, we must use color Doppler ultrasound to observe the pathological changes of the situation, in this way we can have a clear goal in the treatment process.
