[Endoscopic sclerosing treatment of acute hemorrhages (Forrest I) in the upper gastrointestinal tract].

For a duration of three years, endoscopic hemostasis was carried out in the Department for Gastroenterology at the State Hospital of the Canton of St. Gall on 20 patients suffering from acute upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage. 13 cases were of the hemorrhage type Forest IA, seven cases of the type Forest IB. By way of injecting adrenalin and/or Polidocanol, in all cases an initial hemostasis and in 80% of the cases a definite effect was attained. We judge the injection-method to be a simple, effective and inexpensive way of stopping hemorrhage. This method helps to avoid operating on high-risk patients to stop hemorrhage in the upper gastrointestinal parts.

[Therapy of pyogenic liver abscess].

Between 1980 and 1986, 11 patients with pyogenic liver abscess were treated at the Department of Internal Medicine at the Kantonsspital St. Gallen. 2 patients underwent successful surgical drainage and 9 patients percutaneous needle aspiration or drainage. 7 were successfully treated while 2 required secondary surgical drainage. Our results suggest that percutaneous aspiration or drainage of pyogenic liver abscess should be tried before surgery is considered.
