AFP:2.4 (Normal range: 0.0 - 8.9 ng/mL)

B超(5月):Liver is normal in size with a coarse hepatic parenchyma echogenicity. The liver surface is slightly nodular. No focal lesion is identified in the liver

MRI (6月): Marked T2 hypointensity of the liver consistent with iron deposition. Heterogeneous liver parenchyma in keeping with known cirrhosis. No suspicious focal liver lesion.

MRI(去年11月):

Liver: Normal in size, measuring 13.1 cm craniocaudally. Mild surface nodularity suggesting cirrhosis. Diffusely decreased T2W signal with signal drop on in-phase from out-of-phase consistent with iron deposition/hemosiderosis. No focal hepatic lesion is
seen. Central portal and hepatic veins are patent. Left portal vein appears to communicate with large varices in the gastrohepatic space.

肝穿:transjugular liver biopsy with measurement of hepatic venous pressures

因为是transjagular,所以我理解取样应该是在肝里通颈的静脉附近。报告说:The needle was removed and following exchange, a 0.035 access wire was advanced into the inferior vena cava.

六月初做了第一次Phlebotomy(不知为啥叫infusion encounter),这周马上要做第二次(Infusion Therapy 180 Min)。我打算问问医生能不能做的更频繁些。

另外,我睡眠不好,吃melatonin没问题吧?

我做了些research,没发现哪里说有问题。好像还能chelate iron。https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35961513/
