  • Risk of development in liver cirrhosis:

30-40% with compensated cirrhosis 60 % with decompensated cirrhosis New onset of esophageal varices in liver cirrhosis 5-10%/year

Esophageal Varices

  • Epidemiology -

1°: collaps on insufflation 2°: 1/3 of luminal diameter 3°: >50% of luminal diameter

  • Total bleeding risk of esophageal varices 25-50%
  • Factors determining risk of hemorrhage
  • Mortality after hemorrhage  (up to 50% in 6 weeks)
  • 70% re-bleeding within first year without secondary prophylaxis

Esophageal Varices

  • Epidemiology -

García-Pagán, Sem Respir Crit Care Med 2012

 HPVG >12mmHg  Large varices  Child-Pugh stage  MELD score  Alcohol consumption

Klinik für Gastroenterologie und Hepatologie

Use hepatic venous pressure gradient (HPVG) for estimation of indication/prognosis (if available)

De Franchis, J Hepatol. 2010 (Baveno V Consensus Workshop)

Variceal Bleeding

  • Primary Prevention-

Non-selective betablockers Band ligation Small varices without risk factors ± no Small varices with red spots or CHILD C yes no Medium or large varices Either betablockers or band ligation

Esophageal Variceal Bleeding

  • Preendoscopic therapy -
  • Venous access (multiple large catheters)
  • Volume resuscitation
  • ICU treatment, stabilization
  • Blood transfusions (hemoglobin cut-off 7g/dl)
  • Pharmacotherapy: terlipressin (on suspicion of variceal bleeding)

Terlipressin Placebo Active VB (endoscopy) 17% 28% Recurent bleeding (12h) 12% 26% Mortality (20d) 20% 42% Levacher, Lancet 1995 De Franchis, Dig Liver Dis. 2004

Balloon tamponade

Esophageal Variceal Bleeding

  • Treatment Failure -

Sengstaken – Blakemore - Tube

Limited time frame (<24 hours, if possible) Frequent decompression necessary to avoid esophageal necrosis High complication rate – aspiration / regurgitation / perforation

Self-expanding metal stent (SEMS) SX Ella Stent DANIS

Esophageal Variceal Bleeding

  • Treatment Failure -

Work principle:

  • distension of esophageal wall
  • compression of esophageal varices
  • termination of hemorrhage

Device properties: - fully covered metal stent

  • flares on both ends
  • retrieval lassos on both ends
  • delivery system with positioning balloon

  • Recommendations for Placement -

 SEMS placement possible without endoscopic guidance  Confirm esophageal bleeding source whenever possible  Use a guidewire (guide wire included) when possible  Adhere strictly to implantation manual  Endoscopic and/or radiographic guidance during stent deployment possible

  • Follow-up care -

 Confirm proper stent placement by endoscopy as soon as possible  Check stent position after 24h (by X-ray or endoscopy) or in signs of bleeding  After stent placement, stabilize pt. and evaluate TIPS indication  Remove stent after a week, longer indwelling time often possible  Remove stent urgently on suspicion of airway compression

Conclusions

Esophageal Variceal Bleeding

  • Primary and secondary prophylaxis regimes are well defined
  • Treatment of hemorrhage and secondary prophylaxis by endoscopic means
  • In refractory bleeding, self-expanding metal stents (SEMS) very effective
  • Low complication rate of SEMS treatment
  • Removal of stents via dedicated extraction device
  • Combination with complementary methods of decreasing portal pressure

mandatory

  • Stepwise repetition of therapeutic measures often necessary and successful
