Summary

This study looks at whether treating enlarged veins in the stomach early, before they bleed, is better than waiting and using standard medicines. About 68 adults with cirrhosis and stomach varices will either get a procedure called RTO or continue with beta-blocker pills. The goal is to see if early treatment reduces bleeding episodes and improves survival over 2 years.
