| Core Tip |
In this retrospective study, cirrhotic patients who had gastric antral vascular ectasia (GAVE) with anemia and underwent orthotopic liver transplant (OLT) between September 2012 and September 2019 were reviewed to evaluate the impact of OLT on resolution of GAVE and associated anemia. A total of 296 patients underwent OLT during the study period; sixteen patients had GAVE. Anemia improved in the majority of patients in 6 to 12 mo post-OLT, and of the 10 patients who had a post-OLT esophagogastroduodenoscopy, GAVE was found to have completely resolved in 6 of those patients. We concluded that GAVE and associated anemia completely resolved in the majority of our patients post-OLT. |
