Abstract:
Purpose To investigate the diagnostic and therapeutic value of vascular interventional technology dealing with acute massive gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Materials and methods 59 patients with acute massive gastrointestinal hemorrhage underwent the arteriography of mesenteric arteries and abdominal arteries. When positive signs of bleeding appeared, super-selective catheterization and embolization with micro-coil and gelfoam was applied immediately. Results Positive signs of bleeding were detected in 28 of 59 patients, among which 25 patients underwent embolization, and successful hemostasis was achieved in 21 cases with an achievement ratio of 84%. And there were 10 cases eventually turning to surgery.Conclusion Vascular interventional technology such as arteriography and embolization played an important role in diagnosis and treatment of acute massive gastrointestinal hemorrhage.
