Background:Medical treatment and surgery are the two main therapeutic approaches for esophageal variceal bleeding ( EVB),but studies showed that the efficacy of medical treatment was poor,and surgery was invasive and could lead to serious complications. Aims:To investigate the efficacy and safety of endoscopic variceal ligation combined with sclerotherapy for treatment of EVB. Methods:A total of 150 cirrhotic patients with EVB admitted from May 2011 to May 2012 at Wenling Oriental Hospital were enrolled and assigned into observation group and control group by random digital table. Patients in observation group were treated with endoscopic variceal ligation combined with sclerotherapy,and patients in control group were treated with somatostatin and pantoprazole. Overall clinical efficacy,recurrence and adverse effect were compared between the two groups. Results:In observation group,the overall clinical efficacy was 94. 7%(72/76), the recurrence rate was 3. 9%(3/76),and the adverse effect rate was 13. 2%(10/76);in control group,the overall clinical efficacy was 79. 7%(59/74),the recurrence rate was 14. 9%(11/74),and the adverse effect rate was 28. 4%(21/74). Overall clinical efficacy in observation group was significantly higher than that in control group(P<0. 05), while recurrence rate and adverse effect rate were significantly lower than those in control group( P all < 0. 05 ). Conclusions:Compared with medical treatment,endoscopic variceal ligation combined with sclerotherapy is effective in improving the clinical efficacy and reducing the recurrence and adverse effect for treatment of EVB. It is worthy of being used in clinical practice.

Objective To study the influencing factors,treatment and prevention of venous thromboembolic (VTE) in elderly patients with malignant tumor.Methods The clinical findings in forty elderly patients with malignant tumor combined with VTE from our hospital within 5 years were analyzed retrospectively.The risk,site,time,prevention and treatment of VTE in these tumor patients were analyzed and summarized.Results After active treatment,the positive efficacy response was obtained in 26 cases (65.0％),no-response in 14 cases (35.0％).Specifically,14 cases died,7 cases cured,and 19 cases were improved.Besides cancer and aging,the elderly tumor patients were considered as the high-risk group because of the risk factors including hypertension,diabetes,hyperlipidemia,pulmonary infection,surgery,radiation,chemotherapy and so on.D-dimer level was significantly increased in elderly malignant tumor patients with VTE.Venous thrombosis could occur at any stage.Venous thrombosis was found before tumor in 1 case.The most common site of DVT was the lower limbs,especially the left lower extremities (14 cases,35％).Most of internal carotid vein and upper limb vein thrombosis were associated with peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) Conclusions The elderly patients with malignant tumor is the extremely high risk groups for venous thrombosis,and their quality of life and survival will be seriously impacted.Anticoagulant therapy through the whole process of treatment in patients with VTE is beneficial.The prevention and treatment of VTE play an important role in the tumor patients with risk factors such as chronic diseases,high D dimer level,radiation and chemotherapy,which should attract the attention of clinicians.
