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 ...

Clinics in Liver Disease, 2014
Although often considered together, gastric and ectopic varices represent complications of a heterogeneous group of underlying diseases. Commonly, these are known to arise in patients with cirrhosis secondary to portal hypertension; however, they also arise in patients with noncirrhotic portal hypertension, most often secondary to venous thrombosis of ...

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.

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.

Gastrointestinal varices are associated with cirrhosis and portal hypertension. Variceal hemorrhage is a substantial cause of morbidity and mortality, with esophageal and gastric varices the most common source and rectal varices a much less common cause of severe gastrointestinal bleeding. The goals of managing variceal hemorrhage are control of active

Pathomorphology of Esophageal and Gastric Varices [PDF]
Seminars in Liver Disease, 2002 In this article, the gross pathology of varices and supplying veins are described comparing esophageal varices and varices of the cardia and fundus of the stomach. The angioarchitecture of the lower esophagus is such that normally very thin parallel veins in the lamina propria mucosae in the palisade zone become enlarged in portal hypertension and join

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.

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

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.
