Ileostomy variceal bleeds can be a serious complication in patients with cirrhosis and ileostomy but make up a small portion of total variceal bleeds. Multiple modalities have been described as therapeutic options for stomal variceal bleeding, but an optimal intervention has yet to be established. We present a case of a 51-year-old patient with preserved ejection fraction heart failure, hepatitis C cirrhosis, recent esophageal varices banding, and colectomy with ileostomy who developed bleeding ileostomy varices that were effectively treated under direct ultrasound-guided percutaneous injection of sodium tetradecyl sulfate to the feeding superior mesenteric venous flow. The patient did not have a recurrence of bleeding at 7-month follow-up. We consider direct ultrasound-guided percutaneous injection of sodium tetradecyl sulfate of acute bleeding stomal varices to be safe and effective in decompensated cirrhotic patients.
