Efficacy and safety of endoscopic ultrasound-guided therapy versus direct endoscopic glue injection therapy for gastric varices: systematic review and meta-analysis

Endoscopy, 2020
Background Gastric variceal bleeding carries significant mortality in the setting of portal hypertension. Among the endoscopic treatment options, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided glue and/or coil injection is a novel approach, but its role in the ...

Endoscopic ultrasonography-guided deployment of embolization coils and cyanoacrylate injection in gastric varices versus coiling alone: a randomized trial

Endoscopy, 2020
Background Gastric variceal bleeding is a life-threating condition with challenging management. We aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS)-guided coil embolization and cyanoacrylate injection versus EUS-guided coil ...

A novel spleen‐dedicated stiffness measurement by FibroScan® improves the screening of high‐risk oesophageal varices

Liver international (Print), 2020
Several non‐invasive tests (NITs) have been developed to diagnose oesophageal varices (EV), including the recent Baveno VI criteria to rule out high‐risk varices (HRV).

Accuracy of liver stiffness, spleen stiffness, and LS‐spleen diameter to platelet ratio score in detection of esophageal varices: Systemic review and meta‐analysis

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2018
There is increasing evidence of non‐invasive measurement using elastography such liver stiffness (LS), spleen stiffness (SS), and LS‐spleen diameter to platelet ratio score (LSPS) for detection of esophageal varices (EV); however, data regarding ...
