Key Words Upper gastrointestinal bleeding; Duodenal varix; Ectopic varix; Portal hypertension; Case report
Core Tip Ectopic varices occur at uncommon sites outside the typical locations of esophageal or gastric varices, making their assessment and management particularly challenging. We report the case of a 56-year-old male with a history of liver transplantation and segmentectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma with underlying liver cirrhosis and hepatitis B virus infection. Successful hemostasis was achieved through a combination of embolization and surgical portal vein and superior mesenteric vein bypass.
