Massive hemorrhage is a life-threatening condition and requires transfusion of at least 5 units of blood. An emergency operation is required in approximately 10% of patients with Lower Gastrointestinal bleeding.

In these cases, the surgeon makes every attempt to diagnose the bleeding point intraoperatively. Intraoperative EGD, surgeon-guided enteroscopy, and colonoscopy may be helpful in diagnosing undiagnosed massive GI bleeding. Depending on the availability of local resources and the patient's condition, it may sometimes be better to perform subtotal colectomy under Lower Gastrointestinal Surgery with distal ileal inspection than to try to achieve these other tests, particularly if the surgeon is not privileged or comfortable with endoscopy.
