一名47歲護理師反覆左下腹痛卻找不出病因,經台中市立老人復健綜合醫院心臟內科醫師陳琦棟檢查,確診為骨盆腔鬱血症候群。接受微創導管栓塞治療一個月後疼痛大幅改善,已恢復正常生活與運動。

骨盆腔鬱血症候群是由於卵巢靜脈或骨盆腔靜脈瓣膜功能不全,造成血液逆流、靜脈擴張及壓力升高,引發慢性疼痛。
一名47歲的護理師反覆出現左下腹疼痛,尤其跑步、打噴嚏、咳嗽時加劇,嚴重影響生活工作,輾轉到腸胃、婦產、腎臟、心臟科等多科就醫,找不到確切病因,最後到心臟內科檢查確診「骨盆腔鬱血症候群」,1個月前接受微創導管栓塞治療後,疼痛大幅改善,術後兩天順利出院,現在能正常運動。
台中市立老人復健綜合醫院心臟內科醫師陳琦棟指出,骨盆腔鬱血症候群就像腿部靜脈曲張出現發生在骨盆腔,原因包括體質、生產、久坐或久站,卵巢靜脈或骨盆腔靜脈瓣膜功能不全,造成血液逆流、靜脈擴張及壓力升高,引發骨盆腔鬱血與慢性疼痛。
骨盆腔鬱血症候群常見症狀包括反覆下腹悶痛、腰痠及骨盆腔沉重感,部分患者在久站、久坐、運動、腹部用力或月經前後,疼痛可能更加明顯,由於症狀與婦科、腸胃道及泌尿系統疾病相似,容易被忽略。
陳琦棟表示,駱姓護理師曾生育過,下肢也有靜脈曲張的問題,經骨盆腔靜脈攝影檢查,發現左側卵巢靜脈異常擴張,血管高度扭曲與變形,合併骨盆腔靜脈曲張及血液逆流,確診罹患骨盆腔鬱血症候群。
駱姓護理師接受健保部分給付的微創導管栓塞手術,置入7枚血管栓塞線圈,阻斷異常靜脈逆流,減少血液淤積,相較傳統外科手術,不需大範圍切開傷口,具有傷口較小、恢復期較短等優點,提供另一種治療選擇。
不過骨盆腔靜脈擴張不代表一定罹患此症,也非每位患者都需要接受栓塞治療,部分患者可能合併胡桃鉗症候群或髂靜脈壓迫症候群等上游靜脈回流阻塞,若未釐清血流方向及病因便貿然栓塞,可能影響原有血液回流,必須綜合臨床症狀及影像檢查判斷。
陳琦棟提醒,女性若反覆出現不明原因下腹痛、腰痠或骨盆腔沉重感,尤其久站、活動或腹部用力後加劇,經多科檢查仍找不到原因,可進一步評估是否與骨盆腔靜脈相關疾病有關,對症治療。

A few days ago, 87 teachers and students suffered from collective food poisoning in Taipei City Cheng Yuan High School in central China. Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan inspected the meal supply situation of new manufacturers on the 6th and announced the promotion of four major improvement plans, including increasing teachers' nutritional lunch guidance fees, hiring 15 additional nutritionists, establishing a government-level steering committee, and upgrading kitchen insulation equipment.

Liu Boren, president of the Cobot Clinic, said that studies have shown that patients with type 2 diabetes break down their 30 minutes of daily exercise into 10 minutes of walking after three meals. The blood sugar level after meals can be reduced better than walking for 30 minutes at a time, especially after dinner.

Taiwan stocks have plummeted recently. Zeng Guoxiang, director of the Cardiovascular Center of the Hsinchu Branch of Taoyuan General Hospital, pointed out that extreme emotional ups and downs can trigger "sympathetic storms", leading to "takotsubo cardiomyopathy" (broken heart syndrome), which causes symptoms of myocardial infarction without blood vessel obstruction, and called on investors to pay attention to their risk tolerance.

Professor Huang Rongtang from Beijing University of Science and Technology and researcher Jakkrapatr O. Baiyokvihit's team developed a low-cost portable "chip laboratory" that can quantitatively detect three cardiovascular disease biomarkers within 10 minutes. They won the honorary award at the final grand prize stage of the NAM Health and Longevity Global Competition in the United States. They were the only winning team from Taiwan this year.

The Taiwan Depression Prevention and Treatment Association and the Tung Foundation held a press conference for "Young and Aging" and launched a special companion exhibition "Picking up Light and Footsteps" to call on the public to pay attention to depression in the elderly and list three changes that should seek professional help: persistent low mood, loss of interest, and significant changes in living habits.
Hubei has included the brain pacemaker system in the payment scope of basic medical insurance. The 72-year-old Parkinson's disease patient Granny Ge became the first patient to be settled and reimbursed. Her personal expenses were reduced from nearly 250,000 yuan to more than 80,000 yuan. Deep brain stimulation treatment is supported by full-process medical insurance in Hubei.
