Computed tomography poorly detects gastroesophageal varices compared with endoscopy: a real-world single-center retrospective review

BMC Gastroenterology
Background Screening esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is recommended for all cirrhotic patients at the time of diagnosis, however, non-invasive screening practices for varices have been emerging.

Endoscopic Thrombin Injection for Gastric Variceal Bleeding: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Observational and Trial Data

DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT Objective The safety of endoscopic thrombin injection (ETI) for treating the bleeding of gastric varix (GV) in patients with portal hypertension requires further evaluation. This meta‐analysis systematically reviews the available evidence on the efficacy and safety of ETI for GV bleeding.

Comparison Between Conventional Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) And Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) In Prediction of Bleeding from Esophageal and Gastric Varices Due to Portal Hypertension [PDF]

Al-Azhar International Medical Journal
Background: Portal hypertension is increased pressure within the portal venous system. Usually less than or equal to 5mmHg. Portal pressure is measured by a pressure differential between the portal and hepatic veins (or inferior vena cava) of 6mmHg or ...

Efficacy of Overtube in Preventing Aspiration Pneumonia During Esophageal Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection

DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT Objectives Aspiration pneumonia is a potential adverse event of esophageal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). Using an overtube during esophageal ESD may reduce the amount of fluid refluxing into the oral cavity and prevent aspiration pneumonia. This study aimed to clarify the preventive effects of overtubes on aspiration pneumonia during

Prevalence, classification and natural history of gastric varices: a long-term follow-up study in 568 portal hypertension patients

, 1992
To determine the prevalence and natural history of gastric varices, we prospectively studied 568 patients (393 bleeders and 175 nonbleeders) with portal hypertension (cirrhosis in 301 patients, noncirrhotic portal fibrosis in 115 patients, extrahepatic ...

An interpretable artificial intelligence system for detecting risk factors of gastroesophageal variceal bleeding

npj Digital Medicine, 2022
Bleeding risk factors for gastroesophageal varices (GEV) detected by endoscopy in cirrhotic patients determine the prophylactical treatment patients will undergo in the following 2 years. We propose a methodology for measuring the risk factors. We create

Endoscopic sclerotherapy for esophago-gastric varices: a critical reappraisal

, 1989
Amongst the many non-surgical techniques for the treatment of variceal bleeding, endoscopic sclerotherapy (EST) has shown great promise. EST can successfully obliterate esophageal varices and prevent variceal rebleeding.

Clinical Outcomes and Prognostic Factors Associated with Survival after Balloon-occluded Retrograde Transvenous Obliteration of Gastric Varices [PDF]

, 2011
We evaluated clinical outcomes and prognostic factors associated with survival after balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration (B-RTO) of gastric varices in patients with portal hypertension. Of 50 patients with gastric varices who underwent B-
