    Abstract:
    The paper illustrates the Authors' personal experience of the use of somatostatin in high digestive hemorrhages. Endoscopy continues to be the principal method for hemorrhage diagnosis and therapy and the additional use of somatostatin undoubtedly accelerates recovery by blocking gastric and pancreatic secretions and blood flow at the splanchnic level.
