ABSTRACT
Esophageal and gastric variceal bleeding (EGVB) is a serious complication of portal hypertension, and it is necessary to control the progression of esophageal and gastric varices in clinical practice and prevent and treat EGVB; however, the mortality rate associated with variceal rupture and bleeding remains high at present. As for clinical treatment, risk classification of patients should be performed based on clinical and hemodynamic features and individualized treatment should be adopted, taking into account the balance of "embolization, shunt, and perfusion" of portal hypertension, so as to improve the clinical outcome and prognosis of patients with liver cirrhosis.
