Abstract
- Gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding is a common complication of various endoscopic procedures. In most cases, GI bleeding responds to conservative management. And if indicated, endoscopic hemostasis is performed. However, if endoscopic hemostasis fails due to massive bleeding or hemodynamically unstable patients, alternative treatment options, such as endovascular hemostasis or surgery, should be considered. As endoscopic procedures have become more diverse, there have been reports of interventional treatment of endoscopic, procedure-related GI bleeding. In this article we will discuss the endovascular diagnosis and treatment of endoscopic, procedure-related GI bleeding.
