【Abstract】ObjectiveTo summarize the study on the feasibility of celiac axis ligation. Methods Literatures about celiac axis ligation were reviewed retrospectively. ResultsCeliac axis branches included common hepatic artery， splenic artery， left gastric artery which had many variation and collateral flow between celiac and mesenteric vessels by gastroduodenal artery and pancreaticoduodenal artery. Celiac axis could be possibly ligated without obvious complications in patients who had celiac axis injuries, celiac artery aneurysms, upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage, excision of carcinoma around the celiac axis and portal hypertension. However, gallbladder necrosis or perforation, focal infarction of the liver even higher mortality had also been reported. ConclusionCeliac axis ligation should not be performed routinely, but it is surgically possible and may be a life saving approach in certain circumstances.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the value of individualized preoperative simulation in transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS).MethodsThin slice scan data of 39 patients with supine upper abdomen were obtained, three dimensional structures of bone, liver, portal vein, inferior vena cava and hepatic vein in CT scan area were reconstructed in Mimics software. According to the size of interventional instruments, a virtual RUPS-100 puncture kit and an VIATORR stent were established in 3D MAX software. Computer simulations were performed to evaluate the route from the hepatic vein puncture portal vein and stent release position. The coincidence of simulation parameters with actual surgical results was compared.Results① The time of preoperative simulation was controllable. The total simulation time was 70–110 minutes (after summing up the previous experience). Preoperative simulation in daily work would not affect the progress of treatment. ② There were 4 cases of puncturing bifurcation of portal vein, 22 cases of puncturing left branch and 13 cases of puncturing right branch during operation (24 cases of puncturing left branch and 15 cases of puncturing right branch by preoperative simulation plan). The overall coincidence rate was 89.7% (35/39). ③ Preoperative simulations were performed using 8 mm×6 cm/2 cm size VIATORR stents, and the stents used in the actual operation were the same as the simulation results. ④ Preoperative simulation and post-operative retrospective simulation could shortened the teaching and training time and enhanced the understanding of surgical intention and key steps.ConclusionPreoperative simulation based on patient's individualized three-dimensional model and virtual interventional device could guided the actual operation of TIPS more accurately, and had practical value for improving the success rate of operation and training young doctors.
门静脉高压症是慢性肝病的主要合并症之一，它所导致的食管胃底静脉曲张破裂出血死亡率可达30%～50%，是肝硬变患者的主要死亡原因。1概述自1945年Whipple等人倡导门体分流手术治疗门静脉高压症以来，各国学者作出了不懈努力，探求对这种顽症的治疗手段。最近20～30年在治疗方法上出现了许多革新，如内窥镜下曲张静脉硬化剂注射、曲张静脉套扎、门体静脉选择性分流（远端脾肾分流）等。应用β受体阻滞剂心得安来预防或治疗门静脉高压症引起的上消化道出血取得了肯定的疗效。小口径人工血管门静脉下腔静脉搭桥分流减少了门体分流手术后脑病的发生率，而复发出血率几乎可与传统门腔分流术相比。经颈内静脉肝内门体分流术（TIPSS）治疗急性上消化道出血的疗效十分肯定，尤其适用于手术风险大、肝功能差者。肝脏移植作为治疗终末期不可逆性肝病的成熟手段，近年来也越来越多地应用于肝硬变门静脉高压症的治疗，与其它各种治疗手段相比，肝移植可算是对门静脉高压症治疗的一种革命性的变化，一个成功的肝移植一劳永逸地解决了门静脉高压症产生的根源，使门静脉高压症得到根治。
Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of selective paraesophagogastric devascularization withoutsplenectomy in treatment of portal hypertension with upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Methods The clinical data of 27 patients who received selective paraesophagogastric devascularization without splenectomy from 2008 to 2011 were retrospectively analyzed. The hemogram， hepatic function， perioperative compliations， and free portal pressure （FPP） were observed. The patients were followed-up and the re-bleeding rate and survival rate were observed. Results The FPP decreased significantly（P＜0.05） after operation. The complication rate was 33.3%（9/27） after operation， including2 cases（7.4%） stress ulcer bleeding， 1 case （3.7%） acute bleeding portal hypertensive gastropathy， 1 case （3.7%） deep venous thrombosis， 1 case （3.7%） acute lung injury， 1 case （3.7%） death of hepatic encephalopathy， 3 cases（11.1%） new onset portal vein thrombosis. Twenty-four patients were followed up for an average of 27 months （8-57 months）. The overal survival rate was 92.6% （25/27）. Conclusion Selective paraesophagogastric devascularization without splenectomy is an effective method for treatment of portal hypertension with upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage.

To investigate the mechanisms of splanchnic hyperdynamics in portal hypertension (PHT), angiotensin Ⅱ(A-Ⅱ) receptor maximal binding capacity (Bmax) and dissociation constants (Kd) of splanchnic blood vessels in rats with prehepatic PHT were studied by radioligand binding analysis. The results showed that the A-Ⅱ receptor Bmax in the superior mesenteric artery and portal vein of PHT animals (206.9±39.3 fmol/mg protein and 31.5±9.2 fmol/mg protein respectively) was all significantly lower than that of the controls (297.2±44.7 fmol/mg protein and 53.4±12.1 fmol/mg protein respectively, Ｐ＜0.01). The A-Ⅱ receptor Kd in the superior mesenteric artery was markedly increased in PHT animals (1.03±0.11 nmol/L) compared with that in controls (0.88±0.08 nmol/L, Ｐ＜0.05). In the portal vein, the A-Ⅱ receptor Kd in PHT animals was slightly higher than in controls, but no significant difference was observed between the two groups. These results suggest that the vascular hyporesponsiveness to A-Ⅱ in PHT is caused partially by a reduction in number and a decrease in affinity of vascular A-Ⅱ receptors, and these changes may possibly lead to the formation of hyperdynamic circulation.
Objective To evaluate the feasibility of X-ray guided access to the extrahepatic segment of the main portal vein (PV) to create a transjugular extrahepatic portacaval shunt (TEPS). Methods 5F pigtail catheter was inserted into the main PV as target catheter by percutaneous transhepatic path under ultrasound guidance. The RUPS-100 puncture system was inserted into the inferior vena cava (IVC) by transjugular path under ultrasound guidance. Fluency covered stent was deployed to create the extrahepatic portacaval shunt after puncturing the target catheter from the IVC under the X-ray guidance, then shunt venography was performed. Enhanced CT of the abdomen helped identify and quantify the patency of the shunt and the presence of hemoperitoneum. Results The extrahepatic portacaval shunts were created successfully by only 1 puncture in 6 pigs. No extravasation was observed in shunt venography. One pig died of anesthesia on the day of operation. The extrahepatic portacaval shunts were failed in 2 pigs 3 days after the operation (one was occluded and the other one was narrowed by 80%). The extrahepatic portacaval shunts were occluded 2 weeks after the operation in the remaining 3 pigs. The shunts were out of the liver and no hemoperitoneum was identified at necropsy in the 6 pigs. Conclusion TEPS is technically safe and feasible under the X-ray guidance.
Anatomical venous distribution around the lower esophagus, gastric cardia and fundus in 100 adult cadavers had been observed. The results showed that the occurrence rate of the left gastric and the right gastric veins were 96% and 92% respectively. Venous distribution in the lesser curvature of the stomach can be classified into five types: the left gastric vein type, the right gastric vein type,the left gastric vein dominant type, the right gastric vein dominant type, and the balance type (of the left and the right gastric veins). The retrogastric veins were found in 73.6% of 100 cadavers showed portacaval anastomoses. From March 1976 to March 1992, we had treated with transthoracic interruption of portoazygous circulation, 52 cases of portal hypertension resulting in bleeding du to rupture of esophageal and venriculi fundus varices ( male 43, female 9). Among the 41 emergency operations, 2 cases died (4.9%), and bleedings were controlled by emergency surgery in 92.6% of cases. 44 of the 50 cases (88%) were followed up. The recurrence of bleeding occured in 5 cases, with a long-term bleeding rate of 11.4%. The authors suggest that anatomical factors might be the reason of inadequacy of portaoazygous interruption, and claim the advantages of transthoracic interruption of portoazygous circulation.
