Variceal Bleeding

Variceal Bleeding

Variceal Bleeding Is A Type Of Gastrointestinal (GI) Bleeding That Occurs When The Veins In The Esophagus, Stomach, Or Upper Part Of The Small Intestine Become Enlarged And Rupture. This Type Of Bleeding Is Most Common In People With Cirrhosis, A Condition In Which The Liver Is Damaged And Can No Longer Filter Toxins From The Body. Variceal Bleeding Is A Medical Emergency And Can Result In Rapid Blood Loss, Shock, And Death If Not Treated Promptly. The Risk Of Variceal Bleeding Increases With The Severity Of Cirrhosis. The Most Common Symptoms Of Variceal Bleeding Include Hematemesis (Vomiting Blood), Melena (Black, Tarry Stools), And Dizziness. When Variceal Bleeding Is Suspected, A Contrast-Enhanced Computed Tomography (CT) Scan Or Endoscopy Is Performed To Diagnose And Locate The Source Of Bleeding. Endoscopic Techniques Such As Band Ligation Or Sclerotherapy Can Be Used To Stop The Bleeding By Sealing Off The Ruptured Veins. In Cases Of Persistent Bleeding, Surgery May Be Required To Remove The Damaged Veins.
