Summary

This study tests whether a newer, ultrasound-guided endoscopic procedure can better prevent repeat bleeding from enlarged veins in the stomach or esophagus compared to standard endoscopic treatments. The trial enrolls 84 adults with liver cancer who have recently had such bleeding controlled by standard methods. The goal is to see which approach lowers the chance of rebleeding and improves outcomes.
