Abstract：
:Esophageal transection with the EEA stapler was performed in five patients with bleeding esophageal varices. Bleeding from varices has not recurred in surviving patients during follow-up of up to 27 months. One death occurred during the postoperative period. Esophageal transection with the EEA stapler is an effective means of preventing recurrent variceal hemorrhage. This technique is best suited for patients requiring emergency operation to prevent exsanguination and for those in whom a major shunting procedure is contraindicated because of the severity of hepatic disease or other medical illness.
