Résumé
Blood transfusion, splenectomy, and partial splenic embolization (PSE) are generally performed for thrombocytopenia in patients with cirrhosis. Recently, thrombopoietin (TPO) agonists have become available, and investigations of patients who would benefit from them are necessary. Therefore, it is important to understand the fluctuations in cytokine levels associated with PSE. Therefore, fluctuations in platelet-associated immunoglobulin G (PAIgG), interleukin 6 (IL-6), and TPO levels with PSE were analyzed in this study. The study included 110 patients with liver cirrhosis and thrombocytopenia, with the aim of improving platelet counts. Fluctuations in PAIgG, IL-6, and TPO levels were investigated. The average splenic embolization ratio was 58.0% in patients with PSE. The platelet count rose significantly from 6.95 [5.40, 8.60] × 104/mL to 14.05 [10.43, 18.05] × 104/mL (P < .01), IL-6 rose significantly from 3.56 [2.53, 7.33] pg/mL to 18.90 [9.17, 32.95] pg/mL (P < .01), TPO rose significantly from 0.82 [0.52, 1.21] fmol/mL to 1.58 [0.97, 2.26] fmol/mL (P < .01), and PAIgG decreased significantly from 64.20 [38.33, 118.75] ng/107 cells to 37.50 [22.25, 70.00] ng/107 cells (P < .01). On multivariate analysis of factors related to the rate of platelet increase with PSE, primary biliary cholangitis (B = 0.475, P < .01), splenic embolization ratio (B = 0.75, P < .01), IL-6 change ratio (B = 0.019, P < .01), and PAIgG change ratio (B = -0.325, P < .01) were significant. When attempting to improve thrombocytopenia with PSE, adequate splenic embolization needs to be obtained together with improvements in IL-6, PAIgG, and TPO levels. With unsatisfactory improvement in thrombocytopenia, TPO agonist administration was considered.
