Acute variceal bleeding is a potentially life-threatening complication of portal
hypertension. Management consists of emergent hemostasis, therapy directed at
hemodynamic resuscitation, protection of the airway, and prevention and treatment
of complications including prophylactic use of antibiotics. Endoscopic treatment
remains the mainstay in the management of acute variceal bleeding in combination
with pharmacotherapy aimed at reducing portal pressure. This article intends to
highlight only the current nonendoscopic treatment approaches for control of
acute variceal bleeding.
