What is Sclerotherapy for Esophageal Varices Explained about?

Sclerotherapy is a treatment for esophageal bleeding that involves using an endoscope to inject a sclerosing solution into veins in the esophagus to harden them and stop bleeding. The procedure carries risks of bleeding complications for those with bleeding disorders or recent illness. Esophageal varices are enlarged veins in the esophagus lining that are prone to bleeding due to portal hypertension. Sclerotherapy aims to control acute bleeding and shrink the varices through the sclerosing solution.
