Prediction of Variceal Recurrence After Eradication: Comparison of Ten Non-Invasive Tests Performance
ESGE Days 2021Endoscopy(2021)
Abstract
Aims Acute variceal bleeding(AVB) is a life-threatening complication of portal hypertension. its management is essentially based on endoscopic variceal ligation(EVL). Nevertheless, even after eradication of esophageal varices(EV), the risk of recurrence and therefore re-bleeding persists. Our objective was to compare the performance of ten non-invasive liver function tests in the prediction of variceal-recurrence(VR) after EV eradication in cirrhotic patients.
