Brief Summary:
To compare the diagnostic yield of mesenteric angiogram with CE in patients with active obscure GIB
Detailed Description:
Gastrointestinal bleeding GIB of obscure origin is a common conditions resulting in recurrent hospitalization and extensive investigations Mesenteric angiogram is one of the standard radiological investigations for GIB of obscure origin and its diagnostic yield ranged from 40-80 Capsule endoscopy CE is a newly available investigation for small bowel examination especially in bleeding of obscure origin The diagnostic yield is particularly high in patients with ongoing bleeding This is a prospective randomized study to compare the diagnostic yield of mesenteric angiogram with CE in patients with overt GIB of obscure origin The results will help to define the optimal management strategy for this group of patients
