Background/Aims: Endoscopic variceal obliteration (EVO), endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL), and balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration (BRTO) are used to manage gastric variceal bleeding. We compared the re-bleeding rates and survival times of these modalities. Methods: The study enrolled 103 patients with suspected gastric variceal bleeding between July 2001 and May 2009. For the management of gastric variceal bleeding, 52 patients underwent EVO; 36, EVL; and 15, BRTO. We evaluated their laboratory results and vital signs, and calculated the Child score, Child classification, and Model for End-stage Liver Disease score. Rebleeding was defined as new-onset hematemesis, hematochezia, melena, or endoscopically proven bleeding. Time-to-rebleeding and survival time were examined by Kaplan-Meyer analysis. A value of p<0.05 indicated statistical significance. Results: There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics among the three groups. The overall follow-up period averaged 65.13 months. During follow-up, rebleeding occurred in 17 patients (11 EVO, 5 EVL, and 1 BRTO). The times-to-rebleeding were 63.59, 75.79, and 51.41 months for EVO, EVL, and BRTO, respectively, and did not differ significantly (p=0.515). The median survival times were 77.42, 70.14, and 42.79 months, respectively, and also were not different significantly (p=0.978). Conclusions: There were no significant differences in the time-to-rebleeding or survival time among EVO, EVL, and BRTO. Further prospective, large-scale studies are needed.
