Summary

Removable Titanium Clip Treatment for Acute Variceal Hemorrhage from the Gastric Fundus

Detailed description

During the procedure, a removable titanium clip was used to block the bleeding vessels, enabling rapid hemostasis. Five days later, secondary preventive measures such as ECI or TIPS were performed. The titanium clip was removed during or after the procedure, avoiding its retention in the body, which could interfere with subsequent MRI examinations and related treatments. In situations where emergency ECI or other treatments are not feasible, this method can serve as a 'temporary bridge' for the treatment of acute gastric fundal variceal hemorrhage, potentially saving the patient's life.
