Core Tip	We compared n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (Histoacryl?), iso-amyl-2-cyanoacrylate (Amcrylate?) and a mixture of 72% chromated glycerin (Scleremo?) with hypertonic glucose solution (25%) in management of gastric varices. The study included 90 patients who were randomly allocated into three groups, and each group included 30 patients treated with sclerosant injections in biweekly sessions till complete obturation: Group I (Histoacryl?), Group II (Amcrylate?) and Group III (Scleremo? with Glucose 25%). Patients were followed up for 3 mo. We concluded that all used sclerosants showed efficacy and success in management of gastric varices, without significant differences, except in total amount, cost and bleeding during puncture.
