Abstract

 

Alcohol remains one of the most abused substances worldwide. Studies over the years have attributed chronic alcoholism as a major risk factor to liver cirrhosis. Patients with liver cirrhosis develop portal hypertension which put them at a higher risk of having esophageal varices and other associated complications. The authors present a case of a chronic alcoholic male individual who developed cirrhosis along with other less reported complications like sub-arachnoid hemorrhage and portal hypertensive gastropathy. The paper also profiles various changes associated with esophageal varices as observed during autopsy examination.
