PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Gastric varices are a rare cause of gastrointestinal bleeding in patients with portal hypertension. There have been significantly advances within endoscopic ultrasound for treatment of gastric varices over the past 5 years in addition to the conventional endoscopic and endovascular therapies. In this review, we will review the latest literature on gastric varices with emphasis on changes to the conventional classification systems and comparisons among the different treatment options for gastric varices in terms of efficacy and safety.
RECENT FINDINGS: There have been new guidelines proposed by the American Gastrointestinal Association on a simpler classification system compared to the conventional Sarin classification. In addition, endoscopic ultrasound guided coil embolization, a novel treatment pioneered over the past 5 years for gastric varices, has shown increased efficacy and reduced adverse event profile compared to cyanoacrylate glue, the more traditional therapy for gastric variceal bleeding. Options for endovascular therapy overall have not significantly changed over the recent years.
SUMMARY: Based on our literature review, we recommend a step-up approach with initial medical and endoscopic management with consideration of endovascular therapies when initial therapies fail.
