    Journal: Zhonghua Wai Ke Za Zhi; 1992 Nov; 30(11):643-4, 698. PubMed ID: 1307286.
    Abstract:
    The results of transabdominal termino-esophago-proximal gastrectomy in 61 patients with portal hypertension were presented. The patients were followed up for 2 to 7.5 years. Two patients died from the surgery. There was no esophageal varix rebleeding during the follow-up period. We conclude that it is a good method for controlling bleeding varices.
