ObjectiveTo summarize the types of difficult cases and complications during interventional therapy for Budd-Chiari syndrome, and to propose solutions to these problems and complications. MethodsClinical data of 1 859 cases of Budd-Chiari syndrome (2 214 times) who underwent interventional diagnosis and therapy from Jan. 1990 to Sep. 2014 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. ResultsOf the 2 214 times, complications happened in 31 times, which were related to the interventional therapy, and the incidence of complication was 1.40% (31/2 214). Of the 31 times who suffered from complications, 25 times were successfully treated, and the successful rate was 80.65%. Three hundreds and seventy two times had been successful treated in 396 times with difficult situation (there were 9 times without treatment), and the successful rate was 96.12% (372/387). Seven patients abandoned inteventional therapy. Six cases died during the operation and hospital stay period, and the mortality was 0.32% (6/1 852). There were 1 553 cases were followed-up for 10-284 months (average of 100.9 months). During the follow-up period, 209 cases suffered from restenosis, and the restenosis rate was 13.46% (209/1 553). ConclusionInterventional therapy for Budd-Chiari syndrome has entered a mature stage, discover timely and correct handling of intraoperative complications are important to improve the successful rate and curative effect.
