title: Colonic hemorrhage.
abstract: We have briefly presented our concepts of the investigation and management of lower intestinal bleeding. Such bleeding was divided into massive and nonmassive colonic hemorrhage, and the differences in the investigative techniques were discussed for each of these circumstances. An algorithm of our diagnostic and management protocol for massive large bowel hemorrhage may be followed in a somewhat varied fashion in the investigation of those patients having nonmassive large bowel bleeding.
