She suffered from esophagealvarix bleeding due to chemotherapy-associated liver cirrhosis.
1
Fifteen variables were analysed to identify the presence of large esophagealvarices.
2
One hundred and fifteen patients with cirrhosis and esophagealvarices were studied.
3
Every third patient with parenchymal liver disease bleeds from esophagealvarices.
4
Sclerotherapy was repeated to eradicate esophagealvarices and follow-up endoscopic examination were performed.
5
Endoscopy showed large esophagealvarices that were treated with band ligation.
1
Multivariate analysis was performed to identify the markers best correlated with oesophagealvarices.
2
The principal treatment for bleeding oesophagealvarices is endoscopic ligation.
3
The diagnostic accuracy for medium to large oesophagealvarices using these three factors was 86%.
4
We were unable to find any factors differentiating bleeders from non-bleeders, although these results do not justify prophylactic surgery for oesophagealvarices.
5
The conclusion was drawn that the results of endoscopic sclerotherapy of bleeding oesophagealvarices was effective and clearly related to liver function.
1
Shunt therapy, preferably the placement of a TIPS, is indicated for refractory acutevaricealbleeding.
2
Of 55 children with acutevaricealbleeding, 39 had band ligation and 16 had injection sclerotherapy.
1
Its efficacy for the treatment of bleedingesophagealvarices is less certain, and more controlled studies are necessary.
2
Management of variceal hemorrhage includes emergency treatment of bleedingesophagealvarices and prophylactic treatment for the prevention of first bleeding or rebleeding.
3
Fifty-three patients with bleedingesophagealvarices received a non-shunting operation-esophagealtransection and devascularization of the proximal stomach with splenectomy-fromMarch 1977 to October 1986.
4
Bleedingesophagealvarices, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis and hepatic encephalopathy are major complications of cirrhosis and traditional indications for liver transplantation evaluation.
1
The principal treatment for bleedingoesophagealvarices is endoscopic ligation.
2
The conclusion was drawn that the results of endoscopic sclerotherapy of bleedingoesophagealvarices was effective and clearly related to liver function.
3
Conclusions: Emergency injection of acrylate glue is safe and effective for the treatment of acute bleedingoesophagealvarices and does not hamper subsequent variceal ligation.

Patients with poor hepatic function are at higher risk of re-bleeding and death after acute gastric varicealbleed.
4
The four rebleeding episodes consisted of an esophageal varicealbleed, a gastric varicealbleed, a duodenal ulcer bleed, and a bleed caused by hemorrhagic gastritis.
5
Recurrent varicealbleeding is common and is associated with a high mortality.
6
Varicealbleeding results in significant morbidity and mortality in both children and adults.
7
Ten consecutive patients with known alcoholic cirrhosis and oesophageal varicealbleeding were included.
8
HVPG is a useful predictor of survival and varicealbleeding in these patients.
9
Varicealbleeding is the primary cause of death in hepatic schistosomiasis.
10
Conclusion: Varicealbleeding was independent risk factor for survival of newly diagnosed HCC patients.
11
Varicealbleeding is the most dreaded complication of portal hypertension.
12
No patient had ever had an endoscopy or treatment for prevention of recurrent varicealbleeding.
13
Patients with extrahepatic portal vein thrombosis may present from infancy through adulthood with varicealbleeding.
14
Shunt therapy, preferably the placement of a TIPS, is indicated for refractory acute varicealbleeding.
15
Liver transplantation should be reserved for children with poor synthetic function associated with varicealbleeding.
16
At least partial control of therapy-refractory ascites and varicealbleeding could be achieved in most patients.
