Management of gastric varices

Baillière's Clinical Gastroenterology, 1992
Gastric varices (GV) are a common (20%) accompaniment of portal hypertension; they are more often seen in those patients who bleed than in those who do not (27% versus 4%, p < 0.01). They can develop in both segmental and generalized portal hypertension.

Gastric variceal bleeding

Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2019
There are no well-established guidelines for the management of gastric variceal bleeding. Endoscopic management of acute gastric variceal bleeding has been premised on the injection of sclerosants and synthetic glue. However, these therapies are associated with various complications including systemic embolization and recurrent bleeding.

Gastric varices

The American Journal of Digestive Diseases, 1977
Gastric varices may appear in association with esophageal varices secondary to portal-hypertension or as an independent manifestation of splenic vein obstruction. Since gastric varices often manifest as radiologic filling defects in the gastric fundus or cardia, differentiation from tumors and many other diseases becomes imperative.

Gastric Varices

Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 2011
Gastric varices are less prevalent than esophageal varices, but are associated with an increased mortality with each bleeding episode. This review describes the portal hemodynamics, classification, and management of gastric varices. Management options are outlined based on the most recent literature and according to the clinical presentation of acutely

Oesophageal and Gastric Varices

The British Journal of Radiology, 1959
One hundred patients with cirrhosis of the liver or extrahepatic portal vein obstruction were studied with a view to determine the best technique necessary to demonstrate oesophageal varices. The accuracy of the examination was compared with spleno-portal venograms on the same patients.

Gastric Varices

Gastroenterology Nursing, 2016
Gastric varices can occur in as many as one-third of patients with portal hypertension. Within the nursing literature, however, articles focus on the management of esophageal varices and portal hypertensive gastrointestinal bleeding with few publications about management of gastric varices.

Subserosal variceal ligation for gastric varices.

Hepato-gastroenterology, 2008
From the experience of endoscopic examination showing residual gastric varices (GV) after paragastroesophageal devascularization and splenectomy (GEDS) for GV, it was considered that GV could be immediately cleared by additional subserosal variceal ligation (SSVL) after GEDS. We reviewed the outcome of all patients who underwent this surgical technique.

Pseudotumor cause by gastric varices

The American Journal of Digestive Diseases, 1977
On upper-gastrointestinal examination a patient with cirrhosis of the liver was found to have prominent gastric varices presenting as a pseudotumor near the cardia. The diagnosis of varices was confirmed by gastroscopy and angiography. A correct diagnosis is necessary to avoid an ill-advised biopsy or unwarranted surgery.

Endoscopic Treatment of Gastric Varices

Clinics in Liver Disease, 2014
Gastric varices (GV) are present in one in 5 patients with portal hypertension and variceal bleeding. GV bleeds tend to be more severe with higher mortality. High index of suspicion, early detection and proper locational diagnosis are important. An algorithmic approach to the management of GV bleeding prevents rebleeds and improves survival. Vasoactive

Endoscopic classification of gastric varices

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 1990
Endoscopic observations of gastric varices in 124 patients were classified according to form, location, and color. Form was classified into three types: tortuous (F1), nodular (F2), and tumorous (F3). Location was classified into five types: anterior (La), posterior (Lp), lesser (Ll) and greater curvature (Lg) of the cardia, and fundic area (Lf). Color
