Vascular abnormalities of the gastrointestinal tract are a common cause of gastrointestinal bleeding. Most of them are located within the reach of the upper endoscopy or colonoscopy, although once discarded, it forces to consider small bowel as the source of bleeding. The successful management of a gastrointestinal bleeding depends mainly on the timely location of the source of bleeding. Nevertheless this task can be difficult when the cause is not within the reach of conventional methods. We present a case of a 21 year-old men in which the diagnosis of bleeding yeyunal phlebectasia was made by the findings of the capsule endoscopy and laparoscopy.
胃肠道血管异常是胃肠道出血的常见原因。其中大多数位于上消化道内镜或结肠镜检查可及的范围内,不过一旦排除这些可能,就不得不考虑小肠是出血的源头。胃肠道出血的成功治疗主要取决于出血源的及时定位。然而,当病因不在传统方法可及的范围内时,这项任务可能会很困难。我们报告一例21岁男性病例,通过胶囊内镜和腹腔镜检查结果诊断为出血性空肠静脉扩张症。
