Abstract

Objective: To investigates the effect of endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL) on portal hypertensive gastropathy (PHG) in liver cirrhosis patients. Methods: Sixty-three liver cirrhosis patients with PHG were divided into 2 groups: patients with EVL treatment (35 cases) and control groups without endoscopic therapy (28 cases). Eight weeks after therapy, endoscopy was performed to determine the aggravation of PHG. Results: Increased severity of PHG was seen in 26 cases (74.28%, 26/35) of treated group, while only 3 (10.71%) in the control group showed increase of severity (P<0.01). Conclusions: EVL of esophageal varices might be an important risk factor for the development and aggravation of PHG in liver cirrhosis patients.
