Abstract We present five patients with iatrogenic gastrointestinal hemorrhage. In all cases angiography was successful in localizing the site of bleeding. In four cases transcatheter etnbolization therapy with Gelfoarn particles or Gianturco coils was carried out. This was completely successful in three patients and partially successful in the fourth. Complications occurred in two patients.
