Hemodynamical effects of the somatostatin analogues were studied in the patients with external pancreatic fistula. There were examined 29 patients, using ultrasonographic duplex scanning, for investigation of the blood flow indices in a. mesenterica superior, truncus coeliacus and its branches, v. lienalis, v. portae and pancreatic intraorgan arteries. Initial indices of splanchnic blood flow were compared with such while administration of octreotide. The main splanchnic blood flow indices in patients, suffering external pancreatic fistula, did not differ from that in controls, the lowering of the pulsation and resistance indices was noted as well as enhancement of the vessels quantity in pancreatic surgical margin. Under the influence of somatostatin the quantity of visualized vessels had reduced, the pulsation and resistance indices increased, the blood flow velocity along a. mesenterica superior, a. lienalis and pancreatic intraorgan arteries lowered, causing reduction of the blood flow linear and volumetric velocity along v. mesenterica superior and vv. intrapancreatici. Inhibitory action of the preparation on splanchnic blood flow was maximal in terms from 6 till 24 h after its infusion and had lowered step by step during all the follow-up period.
