| Popis: | Despite visceral angiography and radiolabeled gastrointestinal scintigraphy, the localization of gastrointestinal bleeding can still be a challenge. Even preoperative localization with visceral angiography is no guarantee of successful intraoperative localization or subsequent pathological confirmation. We report a case of obscure gastrointestinal bleeding of small bowel origin, which was localized intraoperatively by fluorescein injected via a superselectively placed catheter. |
