As compared to the EBL group, higher survival rate was noted in the EVO group with statistically marginal significance (85.5% vs. 93.1%, 77.2% vs. 93.1%, 74.2% vs. 93.1%, and 74.2% vs. 93.1% at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months, respectively; P =0.050) ( Fig. 2 ).

Rebleeding rates did not differ between EBL and EVO in three studies [ 13 , 14 , 21 ], while one study showed a trend for higher rebleeding rates in the EBL group than in the EVO group (16.0% vs. 6.7%, P =0.071) [ 20 ].
