Figure 1 Emergency endoscopy confirmed the presence of numerous varicose veins before endoscopic sclerotherapy and was validated by endoscopic ultrasonography. A: Emergency gastroscopy revealed tortuous dilated blood vessels around the choledochojejunostomy site (Case 1); B: A mucosal rupture was detected with spontaneous bleeding (Case 1); C: Endoscopic ultrasonography confirmed the presence of numerous varicose veins with abundant blood flow (Case 1); D: Emergency gastroscopy revealed a significant number of tortuous dilated varicose veins near the choledochojejunostomy site, along with several active bleedings. Hemostatic clips were used before endoscopic sclerotherapy (Case 2); E: Computed tomography showed prehepatic portal hypertension, suspicious tumor recurrence in the hepatic hilum area and the formation of varices around the choledochojejunostomy site (Case 3); F: Colonoscopy revealed three varicose veins visible with signs of erythema (Case 3); G: Thrombus head (arrow) was detected (Case 3); H: Spontaneous bleeding was observed at the site of varicose veins (Case 3).
