This paper presents the preliminary results with the SPTU stapling gun for oesophageal transection in the treatment of bleeding oesophageal varices. Porta-systemic shunt was contraindicated in all 12 patients treated, 10 of whom had cirrhosis. Anastomotic leakage and recurrent bleeding were not problems, but stricture formation was, 4 of the 11 survivors requiring dilatation. The average period of follow-up is only 7 months, but early results encourage further trial of the method for the increasing numbers of 'shunt rejects'.
本文介绍了使用SPTU吻合器进行食管横断术治疗食管静脉曲张出血的初步结果。在接受治疗的所有12例患者中,均禁忌进行门体分流术,其中10例患有肝硬化。吻合口漏和再出血不是问题,但狭窄形成是个问题,11名幸存者中有4人需要扩张治疗。平均随访期仅7个月,但早期结果鼓励对越来越多的“分流禁忌者”进一步试用该方法。
