Selective embolization for massive upper gastrointestinal bleeding deriving from gastric angiodysplasia.
Journal of Surgical Case Reports 2012 March 2
Transcatheter arterial embolization is a valuable, minimally invasive method, used as treatment for upper gastrointestinal bleeding, after failed primary endoscopic approach. It is a safe and effective procedure, but it's use is limited because of relatively high rates of rebleeding and mortality. The aim of this paper is to present a case of severe, massive upper gastrointestinal bleeding deriving from gastric angiodysplasia, which was treated successfully with superselective embolization. The patient recovered from the haemorrhagic shock and avoided emergency surgical intervention.
