  • Published:
Acta Endoscopica

Résumé

L’endoscopie digestive en urgence est depuis longtemps incontournable, notamment en présence d’une hémorragie digestive. Les progrès techniques incessants font que l’endoscopie en urgence est devenue un acte médical de haute technicité qui doit associer efficacité et sécurité. Cette synthèse a pour principal objet de répondre à 2 questions essentielles: quelles sont les vraies et bonnes indications de l’endoscopie d’urgence? Dans quelles conditions pratiques doit-elle être réalisée?
