One hundred consecutive cases of upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage were studied clinically, radiologically and endoscopically. Erosive gastritis, duodenal and gastric ulcer, and bleeding esophageal varices accounted for 85% of the cases. The presenting sign of hematamesis or melena was of no value in localizing the bleeding site relative to the pyloric sphincter. Erosive lesions of the esophagus and stomach were suspected clinically in less than 50% of the cases and were the lesions least amenable to radiologic diagnosis and where early endoscopy was most useful. Our observations demonstrate again the frequent association between ethanol or aspirin ingestion and erosive gastritis.
