Abstract EN
We report the first description of recurrent bacteremia in two patients after cyanoacrylate injection for gastric varices bleeding treated with antibiotics alone.
Adapted and prolonged antibiotic treatment allowed a complete resolution of the infection with no relapse after more than 6 months.
According to recent data, prophylactic antibiotics should be further investigated for patients with bleeding varices undergoing cyanoacrylate injection.
