Abstract
During a 23-month period, 50 patients with acute unremitting gastric mucosal hemorrhage underwent angiography. Posterior pituitary extract was selectively infused into the bleeding artery in 37 of these patients, and the hemorrhage was angiographically and clinically controlled in 31 (84 per cent). Four of six patients whose bleeding was not controlled required an operation.Keywords
