The perforating veins as a lateral blood supply route for esophageal varices in lower esophagus are associated with the recurrence of esophageal varices after sclerotherapy, but not vessels at the esophagogastric junction as an ascending blood supply route. To date, however, frequency of association perforating veins alone with variceal recurrence has not been investigated. To clarify the influence of perforating veins alone on variceal recurrence after endoscopic injection sclerotherapy, we studied the prevalence of variceal recurrence in patients with perforating veins detected by endoscopic ultrasonography after treatment.
