摘要
Duodenal varices pose a significant clinical challenge due to their association with severe gastrointestinal bleeding. This condition requires attention because of its acute severity, high morbidity, and mortality rates. The presented case underscores the importance of advancing both knowledge and treatment approaches for duodenal varices. This pursuit is aimed not only at improving immediate clinical outcomes but also at deepening our understanding of complications related to portal hypertension.
