Background: Obscure gastrointestinal bleeding seems to be important problem affecting increasing group of patients. Due to its localization and mild symptoms investigation is difficult and usually requires advanced procedures. Unfortunately, it is often impossible to show precisely a source of bleeding what delays treatment and can cause severe bleeding. Methods: We describe a case report of the patient who refused surgical treatment despite proper bleeding localization by enteral capsule what caused serious bleeding few months later. Patient was operated on duty intraoperative endoscopy was necessary to perform. After treatment he left hospital in a good condition without any negative consequences. Discussion: Authors discussed investigation methods, a role of endoscopy performed intraoperatively and propose a scheme helpful during obscure bleeding investigation.
