[Diathermic coagulation via endoscope for stopping gastric hemorrhages].

The authors studied experimentally the effect of different methods of diathermocoagulation on gastric wall and the possibility to arrest gastric hemorrhages of various intensity by means of the methods under consideration. Monoactive diathermocoagulation, as compared with biactive one, was found to produce more extensive lesions of gastric wall both on the surface and in depth. Biactive method of diathermocoagulation is somewhat better than monoactive one in its hemostatic effect, by means of which it is feasible to arrest even profuse hemorrhage, that arise after incinsing gastric wall along its whole depth.
