Recently introduced techniques of endoscopic haemostasis for bleeding ulcers offer hopes of improvement in their prognosis. Injections of such haemostatic products as absolute alcohol, adrenaline or polidocanol seem to possess the maximum advantages, including low cost, universal use, technical simplicity and easy application at the patient's bedside. The development for other techniques, such as laser photocoagulation, electrocoagulation and thermocoagulation appear to be limited by their high cost and by the difficulties encountered in their application.
