  • Title: [The value of enteroscopy in recurrent digestive hemorrhages of undetermined origin].
    Author: Grobety M, Burckhardt P, Vouillamoz D.
    Journal: Schweiz Med Wochenschr; 1995 Mar 18; 125(11):536-40. PubMed ID: 7899847.
    Abstract:
    conventional endoscopic procedures do not allow direct visual access to the small bowel. Small bowel bleeding can be investigated by enteroclysis, radionuclide bleeding scan and angiography of the mesenteric artery. However, localization of the bleeding can only be determined with these diagnostic tools in 15% of cases. A case of small bowel bleeding diagnosis by enteroscopy is presented, followed by an overview of the literature related to this novel endoscopic technic.
