Abstract:
Objective To study the clinical value of DSA diagnosis and interventional therapy for non-neoplastic lower digestive tract hemorrhage. Methods Non-neoplastic lower digestive tract hemorrhage were diagnosed in 21 patients. Eight cases underwent embolization with gelfoam and 13 cases with infusion of pitressin. Results Intestinal angiodysplasia was found in 14 cases, colonic diverticulum in 2 and hemorrhage of unknown cause in 5. Hemorrhage in all patients was stopped after the interventional therapy with no serious complications. During the follow-up of 25~74 months, intestinal angiodysplasia bleeding recurred in 4 patients. Conclusions DSA is very helpful in the diagnosis of non-neoplastic lower digestive tract hemorrhage and interventional therapy is safe and effective for the stoppage of the bleeding.
