Case description

The next day, 8 varices were banding, the image and the video display a esophageal varix that has been ligated. Patients who have had one variceal bleed are at high risk of rebleeding. Since its introduction, endoscopic variceal banding has been shown to be superior to needle sclerotherapy.
