Jejunal varices are a rare manifestation of portal hypertension, and they are associated with a high mortality and poor prognosis when bleeding occurs. A bleeding jejunal varix is much more challenging to diagnose and manage because of its anatomic location. Herein, we describe the case of a 62-year-old man with active jejunal variceal bleeding who presented with massive hematochezia and hypovolemic shock. He was treated successfully with a high volume and concentration of a glue mixture as endoscopic sclerotherapy using single-balloon enteroscopy in the intensive care unit. Enteroscopic sclerotherapy is an effective option for jejunal variceal bleeding.
空肠静脉曲张是门静脉高压的一种罕见表现,出血时死亡率高且预后差。由于其解剖位置,出血性空肠静脉曲张的诊断和治疗更具挑战性。在此,我们描述了一名62岁男性,患有活动性空肠静脉曲张出血,表现为大量便血和低血容量性休克。在重症监护病房,通过单气囊小肠镜使用高容量和高浓度的胶水混合物进行内镜硬化治疗,他成功得到了救治。内镜硬化治疗是空肠静脉曲张出血的一种有效治疗选择。
