Endoscopic Sclerotherapy
What is Endoscopic Sclerotherapy?
Endoscopic sclerotherapy involves injecting a sclerosing agent (a chemical solution) directly into the varices through an endoscope. This agent causes the varices to shrink and close off, thereby reducing the risk of bleeding. The procedure is particularly useful for patients with esophageal and gastric varices.
Endoscopic sclerotherapy is typically performed to:
- Control Bleeding: It effectively manages active bleeding from varices and stabilizes the patient.
- Prevent Future Bleeding: The procedure is used to reduce the risk of future variceal bleeding in patients with high-risk varices.
- Treat Variceal Disease: It addresses the underlying issue of portal hypertension by targeting the enlarged veins directly.
