ABSTRACT
Acute nonvariceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding (ANVUGIB) is one of the most common medical emergencies that associated with high mortality rate. Surgical operation is usually required in patients when conservative and endoscopic therapy fail to control bleeding. With the advances in catheter-based techniques and newer embolic agents, transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) is gradually applied in treatment of ANVUGIB and has got similar effect to surgical operation in control of bleeding and fewer associated complications. The advances of TAE in treatment of ANVUGIB were reviewed in this article.
