Understanding Glue Injection:
Glue injection therapy, also known as cyanoacrylate injection, is a procedure used to treat gastric varices (enlarged veins in the stomach) that pose a risk of life-threatening bleeding. In this procedure, a medical adhesive is injected into the varices through an endoscope. The glue solidifies within the varices, sealing them off and preventing further bleeding.
Why is Glue Injection Done?
- Treating bleeding gastric varices caused by portal hypertension or liver disease.
- Preventing variceal hemorrhage recurrence in high-risk patients.
- Managing acute variceal bleeding when other treatments, such as banding or medication, are not sufficient.
- Providing immediate intervention in emergency situations to stop ongoing variceal bleeding.
Benefits of Glue Injection:
- Immediate relief from bleeding
- Non-surgical treatment
- Effective for hard-to-treat varices
- Outpatient procedure
