摘要
Gastroesophageal varices are present at diagnosis in almost half of patients with cirrhosis, and variceal hemorrhage continues to be a lethal complication of cirrhosis. This review explains the three main challenges in clinical management: primary prophylaxis to prevent a first episode of hemorrhage, the treatment of acute bleeding episodes, and secondary prophylaxis to prevent recurrence of variceal hemorrhage.
