We report a case of acute uncontrolled gastrointestinal bleeding in a patient with liver cirrhosis.The upper and lower endoscopy were negative for bleeding lesions. We decided to perform the examination of the small bowel using single-balloon enteroscopy.The lower enteroscopy revealed signs of bleeding from varices of the ileum.In this report,we showed that the injection of a sclerosant solution can be accomplished using a freehand technique via the single balloon enteroscopy.
