Objective To evaluate the effect of interventional diagnosis and therapy in gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Methods 32 patients with gastrointestinal hemmorrhage, including 12 cases of tumor and 20 cases of vascular malformation were analized retrospectively. DSA was performed in 32 cases, barium meal radiography were undertaken in 27 cases. DSA, CTA and barium meal radiography were all performed in 13 cases. Superselective embolization was performed in 10 cases with vascular malformation. Results DSA showed clearly the radiologic features all gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Coupled DSA with CTA was reliable for diagnosis of intestinal submucosa tumor. All five cases of vascular malformation underwent successful superselective embolization showing no complication and relapse during 6 month to 2 years. Conclusions Superselective DSA and CTA are valuable methods for the diagnosis of gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Interventional embolization is an effective modarity in the treatment of gastrointestinal hemorrhage.
