For those of us who perform invasive procedures or surgery, this phrase lives deep within our psyche as we never want to have a complication ensue from any procedure causing injury to those we are trying to help. However, the only interventionalist who has never had a complication is the one who has never actually practiced his or her craft. All of us remember our complications much more than our successful cases and, because of this, we learn much more from procedures that go awry than from those that go smoothly. Fortunately, and much more often than not, clinical outcomes can be the same regardless of procedure-related complications provided we have the knowledge and tools to deal with complications and iatrogenic injuries when they occur. To remember another proverb written by the founder of America's first hospital—Benjamin Franklin—An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.","PeriodicalId":91014,"journal":{"name":"Digestive disease interventions","volume":"86 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134959667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Optimal treatment of gastric varices requires a multidisciplinary team including gastrointestinal endoscopist, hepatologist, and interventional radiologists. Initial management relies on endoscopic diagnosis followed by therapeutic modalities based on the experience of the endoscopist and the institution. Definitive management may be endoscopic, endovascular, or a combination of the two disciplines. In this review, we discuss endoscopic management of gastric varices with direct endoscopic glue injection, endoscopic ultrasound-guided management, limitations, and adverse events. We conclude by describing a case of gastric variceal bleeding managed with endoscopy when interventional radiographic techniques were not feasible.","PeriodicalId":91014,"journal":{"name":"Digestive disease interventions","volume":"79 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82399135","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While percutaneous biopsy is fast, safe, effective, and widely available, transvenous biopsy, most often performed from the transjugular approach, offers many advantages for selected patients. In the setting of suspected or confirmed portal hypertension, transjugular liver biopsy (TJLB), most commonly performed by interventional radiologists, can be used to simultaneously obtain core biopsies of the liver and measure hemodynamic pressures in the right atrium, hepatic vein, and portal vein to calculate a hepatic venous pressure gradient. TJLB can be performed safely when percutaneous biopsy is contraindicated, including in the setting of ascites, coagulopathy, anticoagulation, and other high-risk bleeding situations. The procedure can be performed in the outpatient setting in a short period of time for most patients and without the use of precious anesthesia resources. Hepatic venography also allows for variant anatomy evaluation that may be important in the diagnosis and planning of future procedures, such as transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt.","PeriodicalId":91014,"journal":{"name":"Digestive disease interventions","volume":"18 2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75924622","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

If left untreated, life-threatening bleeding can occur. While endoscopic treatment is traditionally considered as a first-line interventional option, endovascular techniques have emerged to become the superior option in certain clinical scenarios, either as a first-line therapy or a salvage therapy. Endovascular techniques for managing gastric varices include transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placement, balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration (BRTO), coil, and plug-assisted retrograde transvenous obliteration, as well as a combination of both. Studies have shown that endovascular techniques can effectively control bleeding from gastric varices, with high success rates and low complication rates, and significantly reduce recurrence. TIPS placement has shown to be more effective in controlling bleeding from gastroesophageal varices, while BRTO, coil, or plug-assisted embolizations are more suitable for patients with isolated gastric varices. Endovascular interventions are a valuable option for managing gastric varices, especially in patients who are not candidates for endoscopic treatment or who have failed previous endoscopic interventions. In this two-part series editorial, we aim to initially review the complex anatomy and classification of gastric varices, medical management, and current endovascular interventional techniques, and how they compare with one another. In part 2, we draw a parallel between endovascular versus endoscopic techniques, and highlight and critically review current literature as it pertains to gastric variceal management.","PeriodicalId":91014,"journal":{"name":"Digestive disease interventions","volume":"110 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89323891","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
