Abstrakt: Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS)-guided hemostasis is an evolving technique that has the potential to improve the care of patients with refractory variceal and nonvariceal gastrointestinal bleeding. EUS-guided treatment of fundal varices with coil and/or cyanoacrylate seems to be highly effective in active bleeding, as well as for primary and secondary bleeding prophylaxis. Reports of EUS-guided treatment of refractory nonvariceal sources of bleeding are more scarce, but show high success rates. The procedures involve a medium to high technical difficulty level, and this has been replicated worldwide.
