Abstract
The chronic bleeding associated with gastric antral vascular ectasia (GAVE) presenting with cirrhosis is more severe than that associated with portal hypertensive gastropathy.Argon plasma coagulation remains the first-line treatment, but GAVE has a high recurrence rate.Thalidomide could be an effective and safe option for recurrent bleeding due to GAVE in patients with cirrhosis.
