Abstract in brief

  • This systematic review and meta-analysis compared the effectiveness and safety of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided therapy versus direct endoscopic glue injection for treating gastric varices, analyzing data from 23 studies involving 851 patients, with findings showing high treatment success rates and better obliteration with EUS-guided methods.
  • EUS-guided therapy demonstrated favorable outcomes in obliteration, lower recurrence, and long-term rebleeding rates, and especially when using combined coil and glue techniques, which showed superior results compared to glue alone.
  • Overall, the study concludes that EUS-guided treatment is effective and may be more advantageous than traditional direct glue injection in managing gastric varices, though further robust data is needed for definitive role establishment.]
