Key Words	Endoscopic ultrasound; Diagnosis; Treatment; Gastric varices
Core Tip	Gastric varices (GV) are a common and severe complication in patients with portal hypertension, and GV bleed more severely with a higher mortality rate than esophageal varices. With increased applications in GV management, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) has demonstrated diagnosis and treatment benefits, particularly in cases of refractory bleeding or those unsuitable for conventional therapies by preoperative assessments, and thus enriches originally-limited options. The advantages of EUS exist throughout the process, from diagnosis, preoperative assessment, treatment, and efficacy evaluation to follow-up in GV patients. This article reviews published articles and guidelines to present the recent EUS-guided management of GV.
