Abstract

Gastric vascular ectases are being increasingly recognized as a significant source of acute and chronic upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy has not only facilitated the identification of gastric vascular ectases but has also revolutionized their therapy. This article reviews recent developments with reference to the epidemiology, diagnosis, pathogenesis, and therapy of gastric vascular ectases.
