Summary
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the rebleeding rate in cirhotic
patients with gastric variceal bleeding receiving balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous
obliteration and endoscopic tissue glue injection. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Recurrent gastric variceal bleeding
- Further decompensation of liver cirrhosis
Participants will receive balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration and endoscopic
tissue glue injection. Researchers will compare balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous
obliteration and endoscopic tissue glue injection to see if the rebleeding rate associated
with balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration is lower than that associated with
endoscopic tissue glue injection.
