Abstract
Considering natural history, epidemiology and prognostic criteria bleeding peptic ulcers should be operated: 1) in case of active "uncontrolled" bleeding: emergency operation. If bleeding is controlled by laser coagulation or sclerotherapy: early-elective operation. 2) in case of capillary persistent bleeding, blood loss of more than 2500 ml/24 h or continuous bleeding after 48 h: early-elective operation.Entities:
