We retrospectively analyzed the efficacy of our modified Sugiura procedure <jats:italic>i.e.<\/jats:italic>, devascularization with\/without esophageal transection combined with salvage endotherapy and pharmacotherapy for control of a variceal bleed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Between January 1999 and December 2004, 912 patients with variceal bleeding were treated. Of these, 66 (7.2%) patients were subjected to surgery after failed endotherapy\/propranolol. Among these 66 patients, 52 had transabdominal devascularization (16 emergency, 36 elective); 14 patients underwent devascularization with esophageal stapler transection (group I), and 38 patients had devascularization without esophageal stapler transection (group II).
