Scleroligation for Eradication of Gastroesophageal Varices.
December 22, 2017 updated by: Sherief Abd-Elsalam
Scleroligation is a Safe and Effective New Technique for Eradication of Gastroesophageal Varices.
Gastric varices occur in 5-33% of patients with portal hypertension.
Concomitant gastro esophageal varices are the most common type.
Both endoscopic sclerotherapy and band ligation are very effective in controlling acute esophageal varices bleeding and preventing rebleeding.
