- Abstract
A report on the case of successful application of ankaferd blood stopper (ABS) in a 66-year-old male with rectal bleeding over a six months period is presented. The ABS application achieved a rapid control of bleeding of a vegetative hemorrhagic mass from the anal verge. The case demonstrated the efficiency of ABS especially in gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) due to tumoral origin. It outlines the plants that comprised the ABS herbal extract.
