C P Fliegel, and B Herzog, and E Signer, and P Nars

Transumbilical aortography has been utilized for the first time to diagnose the cause of massive upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage in a newborn infant. We consider it a safe and accurate method in cases that meet the following criteria: massive hemorrhage uncontrollable by blood transfusions and supportive medical therapy, and hemorrhage active at the time of study as indicated by fresh blood draining from nasogastric tube.
