  • Title: [Antral varices in a patient in sclerosing treatment of esophageal varices].
    Author: Barcena Marugán R, Pérez Hernández F, Capelo Jaramillo L, Moreira Vicente V, Erdozain Sosa J.
    Journal: Rev Esp Enferm Apar Dig; 1989 May; 75(5):489-92. PubMed ID: 2762626.
    Abstract:
    Descriptions of antral varices are very rare in the literature and there are no previous descriptions of this entity occurring after endoscopic sclerosis of esophageal varices. We present a 48-year-old patient with portal hypertension due to alcoholic liver cirrhosis in whom antral varices were demonstrated in the course of the fourth sclerotherapy session for his esophageal varices, when these had decreased dramatically in size. We review the radiological and endoscopic aspects.
