"In 2003, Kiyosue proposed a classification system intended to guide intervention by BRTO-type techniques. With this in mind, gastric varices may be characterised by inflow and outflow patterns:"
"Management of gastric varices is also distinct from oesophageal varices due to the anatomy. Endoscopic clipping or sclerosing are typically first line treatments, although interventional radiology techniques such as TIPS and BRTO are important therapeutic adjuncts. Indeed, BRTO is first-line therapy for gastric variceal haemorrhage in some Asian countries 3."
