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).

Tumor or Varices

JAMA, 1961
Dr. William T. McCoy: A 31-year-old man was well until July of 1960, when he noted the onset of epigastric pain and nausea. On one occasion he vomited about a cupful of bright red blood. He was seen by his local physician and an upper gastrointestinal series was performed, and a duodenal ulcer diagnosed.

Gastric varices

Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2023
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.

Variceal hemorrhage

Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 2002
Reducing morbidity and mortality from esophageal varices remains a challenge for physicians managing patients with chronic liver disease. For patients who have never bled from varices, prophylactic therapy with nonselective beta-blockers reduces the risk of initial variceal bleeding and bleeding-related death.

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 ...

Sclerotherapy of Oesophageal Varices after Variceal Haemorrhage

Endoscopy, 1984
Fifty-six patients with recent variceal haemorrhage were studied in a trial of repeated injection sclerotherapy through the flexible oesophagoscope, with a mean follow-up of 15.2 months (1-39). Twenty-five patients (45%) did not suffer further bleedings.

The cirrhotic patient with no varices and with small varices

2004
The history of treatment of portal hypertension is characterized by a progressive tendency to treat patients in earlier stages of the disease. Indeed, in the beginning, treatment of portal hypertension was limited to treatment of acute bleeding and prevention of recurrent variceal bleeding; from the end of the 1980s it was shown that patients with high-

Mechanism of Varices and Variceal Bleeding in Cirrhosis

2020
Variceal formation and bleeding from varices are the endpoint of a series of pathophysiological events that occur in patients with cirrhosis who develop clinically significant portal hypertension. Through decades of animal model and human studies, the pathomechanisms that lead to the formation of varices and bleeding have been delineated with ...

Variceal bleeding

Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 2002
Primary prophylaxis: Patients with cirrhosis who have esophageal varices but who have never had a bleeding episode may be treated medically or endoscopically. Without treatment, approximately 30% of cirrhotic patients with varices bleed and this risk is reduced by approximately 50% with therapy.
