Brief summary

Many articles have showed that LDRf is a safe and effective alternative type for endoscopic esophagus variceal. But there is still no one,which is prospectively randomized and controlled trial , So our purpose is to compare Survival between LDRf type and conventional type for endoscopic therapeutic esophagus variceal after EVS therapy.

Interventions

All patients in the intervention group recieve the endoscopy LDRf type to observe patients living rate after EVS therapy. Endoscopic variceal scleotherapy (EVS) was performed with 1% ethoxysclerol(4-10 ml each) 2 to 3 cm proximal to the gastroesophageal junction to eradicate the varices by intravariceal injection 20 minutes each once a week, until esophageal varicosis has disappeared. The LDRf type is considered to be an advanced endoscopic methods for GI variceal. LDRf type characterize it: L:L

LDRf type characterize it: L:Location;D:Diameter;Rf :Risk factor;The therapeutic method are decided by Location and Diameter; The therapeutic occasion is decided by Risk factor.Japanese type is a conventional type. Because LDRf type can decrease the risk after esophagus variceals therapy (e.g. rebleeding,mortality,degree of varices; etc).
