Abstract

Background: To study the effect of oral GARLIC on ARTERIAL OXYGEN PRESSURE in CHILDren with HEPATOPULMONARY SYNDROME.Materials and Methods: GARLIC powder in a capsule form was given to 15 CHILDren with HEPATOPULMONARY SYNDROME (confirmed by contrast echocardiography) at the dosage of 1 g/1.73 m2 per day. Patients were evaluated clinically and by arterial blood gas every four weeks.Results: The GARLIC capsule was administered to 15 patients with HEPATOPULMONARY SYNDROME. There were 10 boys and 5 girls with a mean age of 9.4 ± 3.9 years. The underlying problems were biliary tract atresia (4 patients), autoimmune hepatitis (4 patients), cryptogenic cirrhosis (4 patients) and presinusoidal portal hypertension (3 patients). Eight patients (53.3%) showed an increase of 10 mmHg in their mean ARTERIAL OXYGEN PRESSURE. The baseline PaO2 was 65.6 ± 12.1 mmHg in the responder group and 47.1 ± 11.2 mmHg in non-responder group. At the end of treatment the mean PaO2 in responders and non-responders was 92.2 ± 7.75 mmHg and 47.5 ± 11.87 mmHg, respectively (P < 0.01).Conclusions: GARLIC may increase oxygenation and improve dyspnea in CHILDren with HEPATOPULMONARY SYNDROME.
