Obscure gastrointestinal bleeding (OGIB) that cannot be established applying traditional endoscopic methods represents 5 % of all gastrointestinal bleedings. Earlier, in cases of recurrent, overt bleedings the surgeons had to perform a laparotomy "blind" without diagnosis. The aim of our retrospective study was to analyse the effectiveness of surgical therapy in patients with OGIB investigated with capsule endoscopy (CE).
