Unintended perfusion of the gastroduodenum may complicate hepatic arterial chemotherapy leading to mucosal ulceration.
In a review of 233 consecutive hepatic artery catheters placed, 61 patients were investigated for chemotherapy-related epigastric pain. Investigations included catheter imaging, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy with methylene blue injection via the hepatic artery catheter and angiography.
Twenty patients (33%) demonstrated blue staining of the gastroduodenum. Angiography performed in 15 of these patients confirmed a misperfusing vessel in 13.The aberrant artery was successfully embolised and infusional chemotherapy recommenced in 11 patients. Forty-one patients had a negative dye test, of whom three had gastroduodenal ulcers, 14 had oesophagitis or gastroduodenitis, ten had catheter complications (leak n=2, arteritis n=5, pseudoaneurysm n=1, sepsis n=1), three had liver collections, five had floxuridine cholangitis and one had myocardial ischaemia. No cause could be found in 8 patients. No patient with a negative dye test developed unintended perfusion on repeat investigation.
未预期的胃十二指肠灌注可能使肝动脉化疗复杂化,导致黏膜溃疡。
在对 233 例连续进行的肝动脉导管放置进行回顾性研究中,对 61 例因化疗相关上腹痛而接受检查的患者进行了研究。检查包括导管成像、经肝动脉导管注入亚甲蓝的上消化道内镜检查和血管造影。
20 例(33%)患者胃十二指肠出现蓝色染色。对其中 15 例患者进行血管造影检查,证实有 13 例存在异常灌注血管。异常动脉成功栓塞,11 例患者重新开始输注化疗。41 例患者的染料试验为阴性,其中 3 例有胃十二指肠溃疡,14 例有食管炎或胃炎,10 例有导管并发症(漏 n=2,动脉炎 n=5,假性动脉瘤 n=1,脓毒症 n=1),3 例有肝脓肿,5 例有氟尿嘧啶胆管炎,1 例有心肌缺血。8 例患者未发现病因。重复检查未发现染料试验阴性的患者存在意外灌注。
