Background Studies on clinical characteristics and upper gastrointestinal endoscopic findings of the cirrhotic patients in a tertiary care centre are sparse from eastern region of Nepal. The aim was to profile these patients clinically and analyse the endoscopic findings.Material and Methods This was a cross-sectional analytical study carried out in the Department of Medicine of Nobel Medical College, Biratnagar from 30st September 2012 to 30th August 2013(one year). After admission, detail medical history and meticulous clinical examination was carried out in every patient with clinical diagnosis of cirrhosis of liver. Routine, biochemical, hematological, imaging and special investigations were sent as per clinical scenario. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy was carried out in all patients. Basic descriptive statistics were used to present the data.Results A total of 104 patients were enrolled in our study. The mean age was 50.09 years ± 11.79 (Range 26-79), of which 60% were males. Almost 70% of the patients were from productive age group (31-70 years). All the patients were symptomatic. Chronic excessive alcohol consumption was the commonest cause of cirrhosis (80.76%). The major clinical presentations were ascites (83.65%) and jaundice (79.92%). Pedal edema was the commonest (85.6%) presenting sign. Diabetes mellitus and pneumonia were common comorbidities. Gastroesophageal varices were commonest (70.19%) endoscopic finding.Conclusion Cirrhotic patients presented late with complete decompensation in the form of ascites, jaundice and upper gastrointestinal bleeding from esophageal varices. Mostly people with productive age group were affected.Journal of Nobel Medical College Volume 5, Number 1, Issue 8, January-July 2016, 26-31

Background:Astudy describing the endoscopic prole of upper gastrointestinal bleeding in a tertiary care centre. Aim:The aim was to study endoscopic prole in patients presenting with upper GI bleeding. Introduction: Upper gastrointestinal bleeding is a common medical emergency associated with signicant morbidity and mortality. The presentation of bleeding depends on the amount and location of bleed. The primary diagnostic test for evaluation of upper gastrointestinal bleeding is endoscopy. The aim was to study endoscopic prole in patients presenting with upper GI bleeding. Methods: This is a cross sectional study data conducted in Department of Gastroenterology DDHD Anna nagar Chennai from January 2019 to January 2020 . In this patients presenting with manifestations of upper gastrointestinal bleed were included and were subjected to upper GI endoscopy. Results: Atotal of 160 patients presenting with hematemesis and melena were studied. 124(77.5%) were males and 36(22.5%) were females. The mean age was 47.15 ± 17.12 . The most common ndings on endoscopy of upper gastrointestinal bleeding was portal hypertension related (esophageal and gastric varices, portal hypertensive gastropathy ) seen in 40% of patients, gastric erosions in 17.5% patients, peptic ulcer disease was seen in 13.75%, Esophagitis in 6.25% cases, Mallory-Weiss tear was seen in 6.25% patients, gastric malignancy in 5% patients, post EVL ulcers in 3.75% patients, Normal study in 3.75%, Duodenal erosions in 2.5% patients, Vascular ectasia of stomach in 1.25%. Conclusion: The present study reported portal hypertension as the most common cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding, while most common endoscopic lesions reported were esophageal varices, followed by gastric erosions and peptic ulcer.

Background: Anemia is a global public health problem affecting both developing and developed countries at all ages. Iron deficiency is common cause of anemia. It is either poor intake or chronic gastrointestinal bleeding. Goal of this study is to identify the prevalence of upper GI lesions, identified by OGDscopy in patients in anemia with or without gastrointestinal symptoms. Methods: In this prospective study we analysed data of 100 patients who underwent OGDscopy procedure in tertiary care centre. On OGDscopy study 33% had normal GIT and 67% had GI lesions majority were erosive gastritis, erosive oesophagitis gastric and duodehal ulcers, other lesions like congestive gastropathy reflux oesophagitis and malignant lesions like carcinora of stomach and carcinora of oesophagus. Conclusion: OGDscopy procedure is essential in evaluating lesions of upper gastrointestinal tract in anemia for diagnostic and therapeutic purpose.
