BACKGROUND: There are numerous clinical applications for photodynamic therapy in the GI tract. The principal reason for the wide variety of lesions amenable to photodynamic therapy is the ability to treat large areas of mucosa without the need for complete visualization. This report describes observed hemodynamic and histologic changes in rabbit auricles after photodynamic therapy and the feasibility of photodynamic therapy for esophageal varices.
METHODS: Porfimer sodium and an argon-dye laser (630 nm, 300 mW/cm(2)) were used. Twenty rabbits were grouped according to porfimer sodium dose: group 1 (2.0 mg/kg, n = 10); group 2 (1.0 mg/kg, n = 6); group 3 (0.2 mg/kg, n = 4). Rabbit auricular veins were classified according to time duration of laser illumination: V(0), no illumination; V(5), 5 minutes; V(10), 10 minutes; V(15), 15 minutes. Hemodynamic changes were observed with a laser Doppler blood flow meter. Histologic changes were evaluated by light microscopy.
RESULTS: For groups 1 and 2, there was a significant decrease in blood flow for V(15) after photodynamic therapy, but not in group 3. There was a significant difference in the grade of thrombus between V(5) and V(15) in groups 1 and 2, and between V(10) and V(15) in group 2. There was a significant difference in the grade of venous dilation (congestion) for V(15) between groups 1 and 3 (p < 0.05, Kruskal-Wallis test).
CONCLUSIONS: Endoscopic photodynamic therapy could possibly improve the outcome for endoscopic treatment of esophageal varices beyond that achieved by sclerotherapy or band ligation alone.
