We report a case of rectal varices that developed after endoscopic injection sclerotherapy (EIS) and Hassab's operation for esophageal varices with extrahepatic portal obstruction. A 54-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital in September 1997 for treatment of hematochezia. Emergent colonoscopy revealed tortuous rectal varices with a white plug. Angiography revealed that rectal varices were provided with backward blood flow by the inferior mesenteric vein due to extrahepatic portal obstruction. In this case, previous treatment, EIS and Hassab's operation, for esophago-gastric varices might have inhibited the development of collaterals apart from surface of gastrointestinal tract, such as para-esophageal collateral veins or spleno-renal shunt. Since the thrombus in the extrahepatic portal vein causes strong pressure on inferior mesenteric vein which is connected to the inferior vena cava via the inferior rectal vein, rectal varices might be developed. In this case, it was considered that rectal varices were not treated enough by endoscopic therapy because of regurgitant hyper blood flow against portal venous pressure. Therefore, rectal transection was performed. After the treatment, the patient suffered no further episodes of bleeding from rectal varices.
