Two cases of bleeding by rupture of esophageal varices due to portal hypertension treated by sect-anastomosis by using EEA with good result was presented. With the simplicity of technique, the author hopes that technique will be applied to the severe condition of the patients.

52 patients (46 males, 6 females) with esophageal varices bleeding, age from 19-84 years, who were treated at the Central Military hospital 108 from September 2002 to September 2003. The level of breakdown via endoscopy and the number of esophageal varices breakdown on 52 patients included: 5 cases with mild level, 13 cases with average and 34 cases with severe level; 7 patients at grade II, 45 grade III; 59.6% of patients in the first time of bleeding, 21.6% secondly and 19.2% ≥3 times. Treatment results: 71.2% patients had a complete hemostasis; recurrent rate was 57.7%, in which the rate was 9.6% during first month. For 2 years of followed up, mortality rates one month and 2 years after were 13.3% of 57.7%, respectively. The results indicated that the endoscopic varices ligation have good effectiveness in urgent hemostatic cases but ineffectiveness in long-term outcome.

Endoscopic injection sclerotherapy(EIS) has been shown to be the most effective simple method for control of bleeding and eradication of varices. This method has been aceepted widely as a standard treatment of bleeding esophageal varices. However, EIS may be associated with undesirable local and systemic complications. (continue...)

The Endoscopic Injection Sclerotherapy(EIS) has been widely adopted as a primary treatment for acute hemorrhage from esophageal varices. The long term repeated EIS could achieve esophageal variceal obliteration which has been regarded as the endpoint of sclerotherapy by many authors. Several studies showed that repeated EIS improved the long-term survival, and reduced the bleeding episodes. However, in recent prospective randomized trials, the frequency of bleeding was not reduced and even increasd without improvement of survival in patients undergoing prophylactic sclerotherapy.
