Summary

The recent practice guideline recommends endoscopic injection of cyanoacrylate (GVO) is the preferred method to treat acute gastric variceal bleeding. The rebleeding rate remains high following GVO.We hypothesized that a double-dose of cyanoacrylate may obliterate the varices more effectively and achieve better hemostasis.
