Variceal bleeding remains an important complication in extrahepatic portal vein thrombosis (EPVT). As for portal hypertension due to other etiologies, an elective treatment to decrease the risk of subsequent rebleeding is warranted. The results of the Sugiura-Futagawa procedure (SP) in 38 patients w
In June 1996, the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases sponsored a single topic workshop combining a two-day symposium on liver microcirculation in health and diseases 1 followed by a two day consensus workshop on portal hypertension and variceal bleeding. The goal of the combined co
During variceal bleeding, several factors may increase portal pressure, which in turn may precipitate further bleeding. This study investigates the early effects of endoscopic injection sclerotherapy (EIS) and endoscopic band ligation (EBL) on hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) during acute ble
