Coronal (A) and sagittal (B) views of computed tomography angiogram (non-enhanced, arterial and portal venous images were obtained) demonstrated no evidence of frank haemorrhage in the gastrointestinal tract. Sengstaken-Blakemore tube placement in the rectum is shown, with inflation of the gastric and oesophageal balloons, which immediately stopped the lower gastrointestinal bleed via balloon tamponade. Endoscopic clips applied during flexible sigmoidoscopy can also be seen.

A subsequent CT angiogram demonstrated no evidence of haemorrhage with the effects of balloon tamponade (Fig. 1).
