Abstract: The objective was to evaluate the effect of transabdominal gastric fundusectomy plus distal esophagectomy in patients suffering from portal hypertension. Twenty-six cases of portal hypertension with a history of bleeding esophageal varix were treated by this procedure on elective basis. All cases were followed up for an average of 52 months. There was no recurrent hemorrhage nor perioperative mortality. This procedure is well tolerated by the patients with definite immediate effect and low recurrent bleeding rate.
