  • Title: [Injection sclerotherapy in acute peptic ulcer hemorrhage from the upper gastrointestinal system].
    Author: Halasy K.
    Journal: Orv Hetil; 1994 Jun 05; 135(23):1243-50. PubMed ID: 8015819.
    Abstract:
    In the last 7 years the author has used urgent endoscopy together with injection sclerotherapy with 1% Aethoxysklerol at 172 times on 153 acute bleeding peptic ulcers patients. He has successfully ceased the bleeding at 92.9% of the active bleeding patients. Only 11 patients had to be operated on in acute bleeding. Repetitive bleeding occurred at 9.15%, most of them could be overcome by resclerosing. The mortality among the patients treated by injection sclerotherapy was 4.92%, among the operated and partly repetitive bleeding patients 27.2%. The total mortality rate of the 153 patients was 6.5%. In his essay the author discusses the indications and contraindications of the injection sclerotherapy, the marking of correct time limit between the injection sclerotherapy and consideration of operation, the questions of acute bleeding peptic ulcer patients admission to hospital and hospitalizing.
