Gastrointestinal Bleeding

Gastrointestinal bleeding refers to the loss of blood from any part of the gastrointestinal tract, including the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, or colon. It can manifest in various forms, including hematemesis (vomiting blood), melena (black, tarry stools), and hematochezia (bright red blood in stools). At SHIFAA PAN African Hospitals, our Gastroenterology Department specializes in the diagnosis and management of gastrointestinal bleeding, providing comprehensive care to address underlying causes and minimize complications.
