Abstract

Objective To analysis the outcome of Gastroscope and B ultrasonography and grade of liver function in patients of post-hepatitis B cirrhosis,and to evaluate the serious degree of cirrhosis in clinic and affording valuable suggestions in preventing upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage.Methods sixty-eight patients with post-hepatitis B cirrhosis,and detected the degree of the esophageal varices by gastroscopy,measured their main portal vein diameter with B ultrasonography,used Child-Pugh grading to grade their hepatic function.To evaluate the correlation between diameter of main portal vein and the degree of esophageal varicose;between the degree of esophageal varicose and the grade of liver function the findings.Results The more large of diameter of main portal vein,diameter of splenic vein,the more severe of esophagus varix's degree.The more worse the grade of liver function,the worse vein diameter the wide,the more severe of esophagus varix's degree,B grade and A grade,C grade and A grade comparison,the difference has covariance to learn meaning.Conclusion There are certain correlation between degree of the esophagus varix and diameter of main portal vein,liver function ratings.Comprehensive the degree of esophageal varicose and diameter of main portal vein,liver function classification and combined with gastroscopy results can be more accurate prediction of esophageal varices.
