    Abstract:
    Today, gastrointestinal endoscopy has become a routine examination. In our "Endoscopy center", about five hundred gastroscopies are performed every month. It has been said in many reports that endoscopy, especially emergency endoscopy, is an effective method of discovering sources of bleeding. In this report, we also emphasize that emergency endoscopy is effective in diagnosing upper gastrointestinal bleeding on the basis of reviewing 318 endoscopic examinations.
