[New possibilities of Doppler flowmetric ultrasound diagnosis of portal hypertension complicated with varicose veins of the esophagus and bleeding prediction].
Liver cirrhosis as a stage in chronic diffuse liver diseases development manifests itself in structural remodeling of parenchyma and appearance of the main syndrome--portal hypertension. In turn it leads to hemorrhage in 54,3% with death rate of 30-50%. In the article research of hemodynamics in abdominal vessels by the means of modified sonographic Doppler flowmetry and prognosis of high risk esophageal varices are described. On the basis of statistical dependency between degree of esophageal varices, cirrhotic gastropathy and results of modified protocol close correlation is shown, which allow to recommend them as alternative in non-invasive diagnosis of liver cirrhosis complications.
