Despite the fact that the risk of death from esophagogastric variceal bleeding caused by portal hypertension is highest in patients with gastrointestinal bleeding, the diagnosis and treatment need to be further improved. This study is based on the analysis of scientific and practical data about the diagnosis and treatment of patients with complicated portal hypertension, which allows us to understand the complexity of the pathological process, the causes of unsatisfactory diagnostic and treatment results, and the possibility of providing routine and emergency care. Management of portal hypertension includes prevention of the first bleeding, treatment of acute variceal bleeding, and prevention of recurrent bleeding. The literature review based on sources from PubMed, MEDLINE aims to demonstrate the methods of diagnosing and treating bleeding from the esophageal and gastric veins in medical institutions with different levels of capacity.
