title: [Endoscopic injection for haemostasis in the gastrointestinal tract].
abstract: Haemostasis by endoscopic injection was attempted in 169 patients with acute gastrointestinal haemorrhage between 1976 and 1982. Despite various caused initial haemostasis in the upper and lower digestive tract was achieved in 95%. Recurrences were seen in 10%. Definitive haemostasis thus was 85%. Best results were obtained in Mallory-Weiss syndrome, angiodysplasia and post-polypectomy haemorrhage. The success rate for gastroduodenal ulcers was around 75 to 80%. Until now no complications have been observed. Apart from effectiveness, the injection method has the advantage of simplicity and little technical needs over other procedures.
