Endoscopic cyanoacrylate injection with or without lauromacrogol for gastric varices: A randomized pilot study

Abstract

Tissue adhesives combined with lauromacrogol is a safe therapeutic option for gastric varices, with comparably less cyanoacrylate volume used. Because of the small number of study patients, it cannot be proven to have better efficacy than without lauromacrogol. Multicenter studies with larger patient groups are necessary.
