  • Title: Coil-assisted retrograde transvenous obliteration for the treatment of duodenal varix.
    Author: Lee SJ, Jeon GS.
    Journal: Diagn Interv Radiol; 2018 Sep; 24(5):292-294. PubMed ID: 30179159.
    Abstract:
    Duodenal variceal bleeding is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication of portal hypertension. Endoscopic therapy is usually the initial treatment option for bleeding duodenal varices, but it is not always feasible or successful. We present a technique of coil-assisted retrograde transvenous obliteration in a patient with duodenal varices originating from the inferior pancreaticoduodenal vein and draining into the right ovarian vein.
