title: [Endoscopic sclerotization of the oesophagus wall or transhepatic thrombosis of the coronary vein: Alternative or complementary therapy of bleeding oesophageal varices in portal hypertension (author's transl)].
abstract: Endoscopic sclerotization of esophageal wall has been performed in 48 patients with bleeding of esophageal varices. The mortality rate in the acute bleeding was 29,2%. There was no mortality, if sclerotherapy was done in the non hemorrhagic interval. Of the 48 patients 25 are still alive, 8 more than 2 years without bleeding. In 12 cases we performed transhepatic obliteration of the V. coronaria ventriculi. Only in 3 of them no further hemorrhage occurred within 6 months. Fibrosclerotization seems to be superior to the transhepatic obliteration, because the primary mortality and complications are lower and long term results better.
