Hemorrhoids or rectal varices: defining the cause of massive rectal hemorrhage in patients with portal hypertension.

E Weinshel, W Chen, D B Falkenstein, R Kessler, R F Raicht.

Abstract

Identifying the source of lower gastrointestinal hemorrhage in patients with chronic liver disease and portal hypertension can be challenging. We present 2 cases of hemorrhage from rectal varices and a discussion on the differences between simple hemorrhoids and rectal varices. Evaluation of rectal bleeding in patients with portal hypertension is discussed and possible therapeutic options are described.
