[Transhepatic emergency obliteration of bleeding gastro-esophageal varices (author's transl)]. 1979

R Passariello, and P Rossi, and G Simonetti, and A Ciolina, and M Crecco

The hemorrage following gastro-esophageal varices cause a high degree of mortality. Personal experience is presented consisting in 15 patients suffering from cirrosis with inoperable hemorrages. These patients underwent transhepatic emergency obliteration of the varices. The hemorrage stopped in 10 patients, 6 of whom later on underwent surgical treatment with porto-systemical anastomosis. In 5 patients the hemorrage reappeared at various intervals from the procedure. Owing to the possible recanalization of the obliterated varices the procedure should be considered essentially as a preoperative management.
