“…These results suggest that APC can be safely applied and helps to prevent recurrence of esophageal varices after eradication with EVL [97]. Moreover, a prospective randomized study with 100 patients with cirrhosis at high risk for bleeding from esophageal varices showed that both EVL alone and EVL plus propranolol were effective in primary and secondary prophylaxis; propranolol did not decrease mortality or bleeding until obliteration of esophageal varices, but seemed to reduce recurrence of esophageal varices [98]. Finally, an Italian analysis [99] advocated that prophylaxis with beta-blockers in cirrhotic patients with small esophageal varices was more effective and less expensive than endoscopic surveillance strategies.…”

The 18th United European Gastroenterology Week (UEGW), held in Barcelona in October 2010, marked a return to the traditional "stand-alone" UEGW meeting after the previous year's combined congress format of GASTRO 2009. Various abstracts on endoscopic subjects were presented, providing a unique opportunity for those interested in gastrointestinal endoscopy to not only become acquainted with the latest advancements and research in the field, but also to meet and exchange experiences with colleagues from all over the world. This report will focus mainly on oral presentations, with a few selected poster presentations, which will be reviewed briefly in the context of recent literature in the respective fields of gastrointestinal endoscopy.

“…In einer prospektiven randomisierten Studie an 100 Zirrhose-Patienten mit hohem Blutungsrisiko aus Ösophagusvarizen zeigte sich, dass sowohl EVL allein als EVL + Propanolol effektiv in der Primär-und Sekundärprophylaxe waren. Propanolol konnte weder die Mortalität noch die Blutung vor Varizenobliteration vermindern, aber es scheint das Auftreten von rezidivierenden Ösophagusvarizen zu verringern [98]. Eine italienische Analyse [99] zeigte, dass die Prophylaxe mit Betablockern bei Zirrhose-Patienten mit kleinen Ösophagusvarizen effektiver und weniger teuer als endoskopische Überwachungsstrategien waren.…”
