Abstract

Six cases of gastric varices with multiple afferent veins, in which balloon-occluded venography of the draining vein showed insufficient filling of gastric varices with contrast medium, were treated by balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration (BRTO) and temporary balloon occlusion of the splenic artery. The gastric varices were completely filled with sclerosant in all but one patient. No procedure-related complications were encountered. Computed tomography (CT) after the procedure showed complete thrombosis of the varices in five patients and partial thrombosis in one patient. Temporary balloon occlusion of the splenic artery is a useful additional technique for complete obliteration of gastric varices in selected cases.
