RESUMO

Cystic echinococcosis is a zoonosis caused by larval forms of the tapeworm Echinococcus granulosus and transmitted by dogs. In humans, the disease is characterized by slowly growing cyst commonly occurring in liver and lungs. Clinical features of hepatic hydatid cyst are mainly right upper quadrant pain, feeling of lump and enlarged tender liver. The cyst may be complicated by infection or rupture and may lead to anaphylactic reaction. Ultrasonography supported by serology is the main diagnostic modality. Treatment of univesicular cyst is predominantly medical or percutaneous. Percutaneous treatment (PAIR) is safe and effective and complications are infrequent. For multivesicular and complicated cyst surgery remains the mainstay of treatment.

RESUMO

Endoscopic variceal ligation was performed in 20 patients with portal hypertension of varied etiology. Variceal obliteration was achieved in 18 patients (90%) while recurrence of bleeding occurred in two patients (10%). The average number of bands required was four per patient and average number of sessions required for variceal obliteration was two. We found the procedure to be cheap, safe and effective in achieving early variceal obliteration.
