Esophageal Variceal Ligation / Sclerotherapy
Children with advanced liver disease may develop esophageal varices—swollen veins in the food pipe that can bleed suddenly and dangerously. At NeoClinic Jaipur, we perform endoscopic ligation and sclerotherapy to control bleeding and prevent life-threatening complications.
What is Ligation / Sclerotherapy?
-
Variceal ligation: Tiny rubber bands are placed on enlarged veins to stop bleeding.
-
Sclerotherapy: A special solution is injected into the vein to shrink it.
Both are performed using pediatric endoscopes under anesthesia, ensuring comfort and safety.
