Abstract

A 48-year-old man was introduced to our hospital with a history of hematochezia 6 days after left nephrectimy. The emergency endoscopic examination revealed a huge coagulated mass and massive bleeding in the stomach and a lucent trumpet-shaped-hood was attached on the tip of the endoscope for the purpose of removing the blood and coagula. Compareing to the usual examination, the power of suction became much stronger and the disturbance of observasion was removed Immediately. Bleeding caused by the Dieulafoy ulcer in the fornix was controlled by endoscopic hemostasis. The use of this hood was very effective for endoscopic examination in cases with massive gastric bleeding.
