BACKGROUND: The measurement of liver stiffness (LS) and spleen stiffness (SS) based on ultrasound elastography can be used for non-invasive assessment of portal hypertension (PH). However, there are few studies on the corresponding mechanism of increased spleen stiffness. Our aim was to use two-dimensional shear wave elastrography (2D-SWE) to evaluate the relationship between LS and SS and the severity of PH in rats. And explore the mechanism of the increase of LS and SS in PH.
METHODS: Sixty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into portal hypertension (PH group, n = 45) and normal control (NC group, n = 15). At 12 weeks, LS and SS was detected by 2D-SWE in vivo. Related hemodynamic parameters and portal vein pressure (PVP) was measured. Spleen and liver 2D-SWE detection was performed again after sacrifice. Pathological changes were observed.
RESULTS: The SS and LS were increased in PH group (P < 0.05). The SS decreased after sacrifice, and what's more the magnitude of SS decline significantly higher in PH group than in NC group (P < 0.05). The correlation between SS and PVP is stronger than LS (r = 0.624, P < 0.001). SS has positive correlation with indexes of hyperdynamic circulation, but LS was weakly. The correlation between SS and the pathological grade (r = 0.633, P < 0.001) was lower than that in LS (r = 0.905, P < 0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that SS, portal vein inner diameter (PVD) and splenic vein blood flow velocity (SVV) were significantly associated with PH.
CONCLUSIONS: Spleen and liver measurement by 2D-SWE may be helpful in evaluating PVP. The correlation between SS and PVP is stronger than LS in rats measured by 2D-SWE. Hemodynamic circulation are important in the elevation of SS with portal hypertension. Pathological changes also have a degree of influence, but have more significance for the elevation of LS. SS may be a more effective noninvasive predictor of PH than LS.
