dc.description.abstractBackground and Aims: Acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGB) is one of the most important causes of mortality and morbidity in hospitalized patients. In this study we aimed to retrospectively analyze the gastrointestinal endoscopy results in patients that refer to our clinic with UGB. Materials and Methods: Patients with UGB admitted to our clinic were retrospectively evaluated for location of bleeding and the laboratory findings. Results: One hundred-ten patients with UGB; of the patients, 42.7% were female, 57.2% were male with average age 60.4± 17.3 (ranged between 18 and 85). Upper endoscopy performed in 96% of patients with in the first 24 hours of bleeding. The most frequently observed endoscopic lesions were erosive gastritis (33.5%) and duodenal ulcus (29.0%). Endoscopic treatment performed in 9 of the patients (in 3 patients argon plasma coagulation, in 5 patient scleroteraphy with 1/10000 adrenalin solution and in 1 patient varices band ligation). One patient death with abondan bleeding. Conclusions: Erosive gastritis has been found to be the most frequent cause of UGB. The mortality rate of 0.9% was very low. The fast, effective treatment and gastroscopic evaluation in the early period was important to reduce mortality rate. © 2010 Düzce Medical Journal.en_US
