title: [Ligation of oropharyngeal mucosa: a rare complication of ligation of esophageal varices. Two case reports].
abstract: The eradication of oesophageal varices by binding became the best traitment for the bleeding by rupture of the verices. She tends to substitute the sclerosis because of her fast delay of eradication and her fewer complications and gravity. The incidence of complications after the binding vary between 3.3 and 11%. The most frequent complication is the appearance of oesophageal ulcers that sometimes causes bleeding. A dysphagia can happen within a few hours after the binding. Infections are rare. We report two cases of pharyngeal mucosae binding occurring during the binding of the varices.
