About

Cirrhotic patients may be at high risk for esophageal cancer. Endoscopic resection is the standard treatment for superficial tumors. However, cirrhosis might be associated with upper gastrointestinal bleeding, particularly in case of portal hypertension or coagulopathy. This study aims to assess safety, efficacy and methods to prevent potential complications in cirrhosis or portal hypertension context for esophageal endoscopic resection.

This retrospective multicentric French-Belgian study includes all consecutive patients with cirrhosis or portal hypertension who underwent esophageal endoscopic resection from January 2005 to 2021.
