Abstract:
Objective To study the diagnostic value of endoscopy assisted by laparoscopy in patients with small intestinal bleeding. Methods In case of small intestinal bleeding it is hard to define the accurate etiological factor by routine examination. From 1994 to 2002 there were 14 patients with chronic me-lena or persisted melena complicated with chronic anemia and 2 cases of acute alimentary tract hematorrhea complicated with obvious hypovolemia. Results Endoscopies assisted by laparoscopy were accomplished in all of the 16 cases. Lesions were detected in 5 cases with laparoscopy directly, and in 11 cases the pathological changes were discovered by endoscopies assisted with laparoscopy . The pathologic results were leiomyo-sarcoma 1 cases, leiomyoma 4 cases, adenoma of small intestine , hemangioma , vascular malformation and capillary telangiectasia 2 cases each, and Meckels diverticulitis with hemorrhage 3 cases. Conclusion The diagnostic value of endoscopy assisted with laparoscopy is superior to the routine examination in detecting the small intestinal bleeding. This technique has the advantage of simple, less-traumatic and high sensitivity. It is worthy to popularize in clinical practice.
