		Melena is the presence of digested blood in the feces, and usually occurs as a result of bleeding in the gastrointestinal tract, including the crop, esophagus, proventriculus, ventriculus or small intestine.
		Melena should be differentiated from fresh blood in the feces, which is bright red, and usually comes from the colon or the cloaca (common emptying and storage chamber for the intestinal, urinary and reproductive tract).
		There are many contagious diseases which cause melena, so it is important to inform your veterinarian of any potential contact – direct or indirect – with other birds.

	THE MERCK MANUAL, Sec. 3, Ch. 22, Gastrointestinal Bleeding
		Melena typically indicates upper GI bleeding, but a small-bowel or right colon bleeding source may also be the cause.
		About 100 to 200 mL of blood in the upper GI tract is required to produce melena, which may continue for several days after severe hemorrhage and does not necessarily indicate continued bleeding.
		Hematemesis, hematochezia, or melena should be considered an emergency until proven otherwise.

	total colectomy - another question - significance of melena
		I have recently read that melena is/are formed as a result of intestinal blood releases interacting with the digestive juices/processes.
		Or is it the case that melena can be expected to be formed when the bowels start working again after torrential bleeding from somewhere in the colon as opposed to the small bowel?

	Tarry Stool (Melena)
		Melena usually stems from bleeding high in the digestive tract, most commonly from the stomach or upper intestine (duodenum).
		Less often, melena results from bleeding in the small intestine or upper parts of the colon.
		Because of the amount of time required for red blood cells to degrade, it is much more likely that bleeding from the upper gastrointestinal tract will lead to fl, tarry stools than bleeding in the lower regions.

		We report a case of ileal duplication with heterotopic gastric mucosa presenting with melena and peptic ulcer perforation and discuss the problems encountered in its management.
		In those presenting with melena the diagnosis is rarely suspected unless a duplicated segment is found on an ultrasound or barium study.
		Alternatively the duplication can be partially excised with the remnant stripped of mucosa, but this may be difficult in some cases, as vascularity of the remaining bowel may be compromised.
