- Abstract
Background: We aimed to evaluate the basic demographic characteristics and seasonal distribution of bleeding in patients presenting with non-varicose upper gastrointestinal system (GIS) bleeding within the last 1 year. Materials and Methods: Between 1 May 2019 and 30 April 2020, the files of patients who were admitted to our gastroenterology clinic and had non-variceal upper GIS bleeding in endoscopic diagnosis were retrospectively reviewed. Demographic findings and endoscopic data of the patients were recorded. Results: A total of 231 patients were included in the study. Of these, 142 (61.5%) were male and 54 (38.5%) were female. The mean age of the patients was 52.72 ± 14.25 years. Duodenal ulcer was detected as the most common endoscopic pathology in patients. The highest admission ratio was in June-July-August with a percentage of 27.27%, while the least admission ratio was in December-January-February with a percentage of 20.3%. Conclusions: The most common cause of non-varicose upper GIS bleeding is the duodenal ulcer. The highest admission ratio is seen in summer, while the least admission ratio is seen in winter.
