case_images: During endoscopy, gastroesophageal varices (Sarin's GOV-2) with large gastric component (at the cardia and fundus) toward the greater curvature were visualized (Figure 1).
case_images: Endoscopic image of hardened gastric varices after intravariceal injection with N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate.

case_images: A total of 5 ml of the mixture was injected in 5 separate aliquots at 5 different locations with complete obliteration (Figure 2).
case_images: Computed tomography view of the abdomen (in coronal view). The liver contour is nodular (red arrows) confirming the presence of cirrhosis. There is a hypodense collection (yellow arrow) near the splenic hilum and below the stomach, corresponding to the retrogastric abscess. The small amount of residual N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate is brightly visible in the perigastric region (green arrow).

case_images: The CT scan (Figures 3 and 4) showed a retrogastric abscess (5.1 cm x 3.4 cm x 4.3 cm in size) adjacent to the left diaphragmatic crus and pancreatic tail.
case_images: Computed tomography view of the abdomen (in axial view). The hypodense collection (yellow arrow) behind the stomach corresponds to the retrogastric abscess. The residual N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate in the perigastric region is more explicit in this view (green arrow).

case_images: Computed tomography view of the abdomen (in coronal view) after completion of antibiotics. The previously seen retrogastric abscess has completely resolved leaving behind a small area of scarred tissue (yellow arrow). The residual N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate in the perigastric region is still visible (green arrow).

case_images: Two CT scans (Figures 5 and 6) were repeated at one month intervals, which showed gradual resolution of the retrogastric abscess to a small nonliquid lesion.
