摘要

Lower gastrointestinal (GI) anastomotic bleeding in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is rare but can be detrimental. Time and effective management is critical to prevent morbidity. Endoscopy has emerged as a minimally invasive and highly effective treatment modality for the management of this complication. However, endoscopic treatment for anastomotic bleeding faces challenges such as recurrent bleeding, complication of the procedure, and need for interdisciplinary collaboration. In this study, we focus on the techniques, efficacy, and safety of endoscopic interventions for the treatment of lower GI anastomotic bleeding in patients with IBD.
