Objective:
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of endoscopic cyanoacrylate injection therapy for refractory high-risk peptic ulcer bleeding by conventional endoscopic therapy.
Methods:
154 patients with refractory high-risk peptic ulcer bleeding by conventional endoscopic therapy at the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical Univesity and the People's Hospital of Liupanshui City from January 2018 to December 2021were enrolled in this study. Endoscopic intracellular cyanoacrylate injection was first carried out. When failure, perintravascullar injection was carried out. The data were retrospectively collected.
Results:
Among the 154 patients, 102 patients (66.23%) obtained successful intravascular injection and perivascular injection was performed in 52 patients (33.77%). Immediate hemostatic rate for active bleeding achieved 93.18%. Overall rebleeding rate within 30 days was 12.99% and successful hemostasis rate achieved 87.01%. Immediate hemostatic rate and successful hemostasis rate in intravascular injection patients were markedly superior over perivascular injection. Rebleeding rate in intravascular injection patients was markedly lower than that in perivascular injection patients. 14 patients complicated abdominal pain and no other complication occurred.
Conclusion:
Endoscopic cyanoacrylate injection therapy, especial intravascular injection, was effective and safe, with high successful hemostasis rate for refractory high-risk peptic ulcer bleeding by conventional endoscopic therapy.
