Abstract

Abstract:

The early recognition and treatment of ectopic varicose vein hemorrhage caused by portal hypertension in hepatic cirrhosis is a difficult problem in clinical work because of its difficulty in diagnosis, large amount of bleeding, difficulty in hemostasis, poor prognosis and high mortality. In this paper, the recognition and treatment of ectopic varicose vein hemorrhage in hepatic portal hypertension are summarized by referring to relevant literature.

Key words: Hepatic cirrhotic, Portal hypertension, Ectopic varices ruptured bleeding
