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.
6
Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the value of serum fibrosis markers for the diagnosis of oesophagealvarices in alcoholic patients.
7
Conclusions: These three non-invasive markers correctly predict the presence or absence of medium to large oesophagealvarices in 86% of alcoholic patients.
8
Conclusions: Emergency injection of acrylate glue is safe and effective for the treatment of acute bleeding oesophagealvarices and does not hamper subsequent variceal ligation.
