Meanings of oesophageal varices in inglês

Multivariate analysis was performed to identify the markers best correlated with oesophageal varices.

The principal treatment for bleeding oesophageal varices is endoscopic ligation.

The diagnostic accuracy for medium to large oesophageal varices using these three factors was 86%.

We were unable to find any factors differentiating bleeders from non-bleeders, although these results do not justify prophylactic surgery for oesophageal varices.

The conclusion was drawn that the results of endoscopic sclerotherapy of bleeding oesophageal varices was effective and clearly related to liver function.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the value of serum fibrosis markers for the diagnosis of oesophageal varices in alcoholic patients.

Conclusions: These three non-invasive markers correctly predict the presence or absence of medium to large oesophageal varices in 86% of alcoholic patients.

Conclusions: Emergency injection of acrylate glue is safe and effective for the treatment of acute bleeding oesophageal varices and does not hamper subsequent variceal ligation.
