Özet

Objective: Hematemesis is a common symptom of upper gastrointestinal bleeding, bleeding from the mouth that appears fresh red or looks like "coffee grounds." It is a rare, life-threatening emergency condition and potentially requires emergency intervention in children. Our study aims to evaluate the gastroscopy findings of pediatric patients who presented with vomiting of blood.
