Plasma thromboxane B2 were investigated in various diseases; arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO), thromboangitis obliterans (TAO), abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and malignant diseases. TxB2 changes due to arterial recostructive surgery and general surgery were invetigated.
The results obtained were as fallows.
1) TxB2 level was significantly increased in the patients with TAO or malignant diseases, and was increased in ASO, AAA compared with healthy control.
2) TxB2 was significantly increased during operations and postoperative periods in arterial reconstructive surgery and general surgery.
3) There was significant positive correlation between TxB2 and β-TG (p<0.01).
4) TxB2 was elevated during operations, so it suggests that platelet activity was vivid during operations.
