Abstract
The technique, indications, and results of intraoperative total enteroscopy were evaluated in 10 patients. A good diagnostic and therapeutic result was achieved in two circumstances: chronic recurring blood loss in the elderly and intussusception in young adults with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. Endoscopic coagulation of vascular abnormalities and polypectomy were accomplished so that bowel resection could be limited.Entities:
