ESOPHAGEAL VARICEAL BANDING

ESOPHAGEAL VARICEAL BANDING

Having variceal bleeding is a potentially life-threatening condition that requires prompt care and treatment. Variceal banding is commonly used to stop this bleeding and reduce the risk of serious complications. It is the bleeding that occurs when you have enlarged veins or varices in your digestive tract – it can happen when you have a disease that affects the liver, such as cirrhosis. Liver conditions can cause more blood to flow through the digestive tract, which can lead to enlarged veins. When you have this problem, you’re likely to have it occur again. Variceal banding helps stop this bleeding from happening. If you have variceal bleeding, you might vomit blood, have a rapid heart rate and feel lightheaded. Other symptoms that can occur include low blood pressure and stool that is 

dark, tarry or stool with blood in it. If you have experienced any of these symptoms, it is crucial to seek medical care as soon as possible to lower the risk of fatal complications. Variceal banding is a non-invasive procedure that involves the use of endoscopy. These endoscopic techniques involve placing a tiny camera, instruments, and rings inside your digestive tract. The camera helps doctors see inside the affected area in order to put the rings around your affected veins. Since this is a non-invasive procedure, you do not have to worry about certain complications, such as infections and bleeding.
