摘要：

In chronic radiation proctitis bleeding occurs from mucosal friability and neovascular telangiectasias. Fourteen patients with bleeding from chronic radiation proctitis underwent endoscopic argon laser therapy at 4 to 8 W. The goal of treatment was obliteration of all telangiectasias. The average follow-up was 35 months. Of the 51 procedures, 48 (94%) were performed on outpatients with enema preparation and little or no sedation. A median of three procedures was performed per patient, with two sessions required for initial control of bleeding. Ten patients (71%) required maintenance therapy for recurrent bleeding from telangiectasias that developed after initial therapy. The mean interval between maintenance sessions was 7 months. No immediate or late complications occurred.
