Thirty consecutive alcoholic patients with biopsy-proven cirrhosis of the liver and oesophageal varices underwent a total of 47 upper intestinal endoscopies. During 31 of the endoscopies paravariceal sclerotherapy of oesophageal varices was performed. Blood cultures were drawn before and after the procedures. Bacteriaemia after endoscopy was detected on seven occasions: six after sclerotherapy and one after endoscopy without sclerotherapy. This difference did not reach statistical significance. The microorganisms cultured belonged to the normal flora of the skin or the oropharynx. Bacteriaemia was transient and had no clinical consequences.
30例经活检证实为肝硬化和食管静脉曲张的连续酒精性患者共接受了47次上消化道内镜检查。在31次内镜检查中对食管静脉曲张进行了曲张静脉旁硬化治疗。在操作前后采集血培养样本。内镜检查后有7次检测到菌血症：6次在硬化治疗后，1次在未进行硬化治疗的内镜检查后。这种差异未达到统计学显著性。培养出的微生物属于皮肤或口咽部的正常菌群。菌血症是短暂的，没有临床后果。
