Abstract:
Gastrointestinal bleeding is common in children. The causes of hemorrhage is numer-ous and varies with age. Most of them can be identified by conventional endoscopy and imaging examina-tion. For unexplained bleeding,especially repeated bleeding which failed to conservative therapy,a one-stop hybrid procedure of gastrduodenoscopy,colonoscopy and laparoscopy showed great clinical application value. Endoscopic hematischesis is widely used for minimally invasiveness,effectiveness,and recognition of biopsied lesions. With the progress of laparoscopic technology,single-port transumbilical laparoscopy is increasingly applied in pediatric gastrointestinal bleeding. While surgical exploration is still mandatory for massive hemorrhage in emergency circumstances.
