Evaluation of the effect of partial splenic embolization on platelet values for liver cirrhosis patients with thrombocytopenia

Table 1 Effects of partial splenic embolization on platelet values

Basal values(× 103/μL)	Embolizationarea (%)	After 2 wk(× 103/μL)	After 1 year(× 103/μL)
Low embolization
56	15	69	66
54	25	66	51
Average platelet value		67.5	58.5
High embolization
60	35	1751	1361
40	45	2031	1581
67	35	2581	1401
61	30	2121	1851
58	30	2071	1491
64	30	71	59
48	50	2501	1951
51	65	1591	1411
Average platelet value		1922	1452

¹Means significant differences in platelet values between basal values and post-embolization values;

²Means significant differences in platelet values between low and high embolization areas groups.

Table 2 Effect of partial splenic embolization on GPT values

Basal values(IU/L)	Embolizationarea (%)	After 2 wk(IU/L)	After 1 year(IU/L)
Low embolization
145	15	461	451
95	25	571	511
Average GPT value		51.5	48
High embolization
87	35	471	521
76	45	501	511
102	35	541	401
98	30	441	511
87	30	561	441
116	30	581	541
79	50	591	551
66	65	451	351
Average GPT value		52	48

¹Means significant differences in GPT values between basal values and post-embolization values.
