The utility of video capsule endoscopy (VCE) for the detection of small bowel bleeding arising from benign and malignant tumors: report of two cases.

Video capsule endoscopy (VCE) has become a first-line diagnostic tool for the diagnosis of small bowel bleeding. Prior to VCE, procedures to visualize the site of small intestinal bleeding were rudimentary and frequently delivered inconclusive findings. VCE allows for improved visualization, resulting in more accurate identification of benign and malignant tumors of the small bowel.
