Endoscopic Diagnosis of Gastric Varices
Endoscopy, 1994In this retrospective study, the presence and appearance of gastric varices were analyzed among patients presenting at Kasr El Aini Hospital with variceal bleeding during the period from 1984 to 1989. Two groups of patients were studied. The first group included 970 patients with documented variceal bleeding with no history of sclerotherapy.

Endoscopic Therapy for Gastric Varices
Clinics in Liver Disease, 2010Bleeding from gastric varices (GVs) is generally more severe than bleeding from esophageal varices (EVs), but is thought to occur less frequently. Although several recent developments in the agents and the techniques have improved the outcome of GV bleeds no consensus has been reached on the optimum treatment.

Clinical Importance of Gastric Varices
New England Journal of Medicine, 1960GASTRIC varices are being seen increasingly often in the patient presenting acute gastrointestinal hemorrhage. This increased frequency is associated with a greater number of cirrhotic patients found in hospital practice. In the cirrhotic patient hemorrhage is usually thought to be secondary to esophageal varices although peptic ulcer and cancer are ...

Gastroesophageal varices are present in approximately 50% of patients with cirrhosis and are more frequently observed in patients with poor liver function. Gastric varices (GV) bleed less frequently than esophageal varices (EV) and are the bleeding source in approximately 10–30% of patients suffering from variceal hemorrhage [62].

GASTRIC DEVASCULARIZATION AND SPLENECTOMY FOR BLEEDING GASTRIC VARICES
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1995Gastric varices may be associated with oesophageal varices in patients with portal hypertension. Control of haemorrhage from gastric varices is often difficult. Between June 1988 and February 1990, six patients underwent gastric devascularization in an effort to control life‐threatening haemorrhage from bleeding gastric varices after non‐operative ...

Endovascular Management of Gastric Varices
Clinics in Liver Disease, 2014Bleeding from gastric varices is a major complication of portal hypertension. Although less common than bleeding associated with esophageal varices, gastric variceal bleeding has a higher mortality. From an endovascular perspective,transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunts (TIPS) to decompress the portal circulation and/or balloon-occluded ...

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
