Purpose of review Gastric varices are a rare cause of gastrointestinal bleeding in patients with portal hypertension. There have been significantly advances within endoscopic ultrasound for treatment of gastric varices over the past 5 years in addition to the conventional endoscopic and endovascular therapies.

Frontline Gastroenterology, 2022
Gastric varices (GV) are a type of ectopic varix, which is a natural portosystemic shunt occurring in response to an increase in intrahepatic vascular resistance, mostly commonly from portal hypertension. GV are present in up to 20% of patients with portal hypertension.

Radiology, 1972
Varices involving the body of the stomach may be confused for other processesbut can be easily identified radiologically by their pliable nature and characteristic serpentine course with occasional localized bulbous enlargements. In absence of esophageal varices, the site of splenic vein occlusion between the left gastroepiploic vein and the coronary ...

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.

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.

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, 1959One 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.

Subserosal variceal ligation for gastric varices.
Hepato-gastroenterology, 2008From 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, 1977On 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, 2014Gastric 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
