Brief Summary: The investigators goal is to compare the standard argon plasma coagulation APC treatment with endoscopic band ligation EBL in patients with Gastric Antral Vascular Ectasia
Detailed Description: Gastric antral vascular ectasia GAVE is a vascular structural malformation in the stomach that can lead to active or chronic intermittent gastrointestinal bleeding or chronic iron-deficiency anemia

The current standard endoscopic treatment is with APC There have been multiple reports and case series in the literature about successful treatment with EBL for GAVE even in cases where APC was unsuccessful for treatment of GAVE Our goal is to compare the standard APC treatment with EBL in patients with Gastric Antral Vascular Ectasia
