Experience with a left gastric venacaval shunt for esophageal varices

The Japanese Journal of Surgery, 1983
A left gastric venacaval shunt for esophageal varices was performed in six patients in attempts to selectively decrease left gastric venous pressure without decreasing portal venous pressure. The left gastric venous pressure decreased from 140-390 mmH2O to 140-200 mmH2O after the left gastric venacaval shunt, while the portal venous pressure remained ...

Injection sclerotherapy for the management of esophageal and gastric varices

Techniques in Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 2005
The development of esophageal and gastric varices is an important complication of portal hypertension with significant morbidity and mortality. Endoscopic variceal sclerotherapy (EVS) was the first and, for many years, the only successful endoscopic method available for the treatment of bleeding varices.

Endoscopic Treatment of Acute Esophageal and Gastric Variceal Bleeding

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America
Acute variceal bleeding is a serious complication of portal hypertension. This most often manifests as bleeding from esophageal varices. Although less likely to occur, bleeding from gastric varices is usually more severe. The best endoscopic management for acute esophageal variceal bleeding is band ligation and this often proves to be definitive ...

A method for facilitating endoscopic diagnosis of esophageal varices and gastric lesions

The American Journal of Digestive Diseases, 1966
The use of an endotracheal cuff on the esophagoscope improves the visualization and accuracy of diagnosis of esophageal varices. The addition of a modified endotracheal cuff to the flexible gastroscope with a movable tip enhances visualization of the lesser curvature of the antrum and of the pylorus.
