Detection of hemorrhage in a patient with cecal varices using 99mTc- sulfur colloid

JW Barry and CV Engle

Colonic or ileal varices secondary to portal hypertension or superior mesenteric vein obstruction may present with significant hemorrhage which is difficult to diagnose by angiography. In a patient with lower gastrointestinal hemorrhage and colonic varices, a 99mTc-sulfur colloid scan demonstrated the varices and extravasation into the cecum. Extravasation was not demonstrable by angiography.
