[Importance of emergency fiber endoscopy in the diagnosis of hemorrhages from the upper parts of the digestive tract]. 1979

Ia A Pupurs

The work elucidates the role of the urgent fibroendoscopy in diagnosing hemorrhages from the upper parts of the gastro-intestinal tract. The urgent fibroendoscopy was performed in 121 patients with acute gastric hemorrhage. The cause of the hemorrhage was revealed in 111 patients (92%). In 25% (28 patients) the endoscopic examination has revealed additional changes, not responsible for hemorrhage. The endoscopic examination is most effective within the time of the proceeding hemorrhage.
