Rectal variceal bleeding, though rare, can pose significant morbidity and mortality in the wake of treatment failure. Conventional treatment utilizing endoscopic glue injection might not be feasible in all cases due to poor visualization and inadvertent missing of variceal source of bleed. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided rectal variceal management is a promising and effective modality. We provide real-time images and a video of EUS-guided precision management of rectal variceal bleed using coiling and glue in a cirrhotic.
直肠静脉曲张出血虽罕见,但治疗失败后可导致严重的发病率和死亡率。由于视野不佳和无意中遗漏静脉曲张出血源,利用内镜下注射胶水的传统治疗在所有病例中可能都不可行。内镜超声(EUS)引导下的直肠静脉曲张治疗是一种有前景且有效的方法。我们提供了在一名肝硬化患者中使用线圈和胶水进行EUS引导下直肠静脉曲张出血精准治疗的实时图像和视频。
