Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 1999
Cirrhotic patients should receive an endoscopy. Those with medium to large varices identified by endoscopy should receive beta-blocker therapy. The initial episode of variceal bleeding should be managed with endoscopic therapy to control the acute bleeding and concurrent infusion of octreotide.

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.

Figure 2 is the algorithm followed in our institution for management of acute variceal hemorrhage. A small percentage of patients who present with active variceal hemorrhage will stop bleeding after gastric lavage alone. However, most patients require an intravenous vasopressin infusion at a dose of 0.4 units per minute, preferably combined with ...

Pregnancy and esophageal varices
The American Journal of Surgery, 1982A review of the case histories of 53 patients with established cirrhosis who had 83 pregnancies and 38 noncirrhotic patients with varices who had 77 pregnancies suggests that conception may occur in patients with varying degrees of hepatic decompensation, that sustaining gestation to term and delivery is unlikely to overtax cirrhotic livers in patients
