  • Title: Intraoperative enteroscopy for diagnosis of a bleeding jejunal lymphangioma.
    Author: Ugwonali O, Coady M, Saxena R, Robert M, Horowitz N, Topazian M.
    Journal: J Clin Gastroenterol; 2000 Dec; 31(4):333-5. PubMed ID: 11129277.
    Abstract:
    A patient with recurrent gastrointestinal bleeding from a jejunal lymphangioma is described. Multiple preoperative diagnostic studies, including sonde enteroscopy, failed to reveal a bleeding source. A bleeding lymphangioma was subsequently detected by intraoperative enteroscopy of the small bowel. Intraoperative enteroscopy was a useful diagnostic technique in this patient with otherwise unexplained gastrointestinal bleeding.
