A Therapeutic Approach to Cecal Varices.
2020
: Ectopic varices account for 1%-5% of all variceal bleeding episodes. The most common presentation of cecal varices is an acute episode of a massive lower gastrointestinal hemorrhage. However, cecal varices can be found incidentally and can be silent for a prolonged period of time before presenting with a massive gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Through this case of a 63-year-old woman, we would like to highlight the paucity of literature in the treatment of nonbleeding cecal varices.
