Although it is recommended that upper gastrointestinal endoscopies either be postponed or canceled during the pandemic because of their high risk of aerosol generation, this does not apply in emergency cases, which may include patients with coronavirus disease. In this case report, we describe the safe undertaking of an emergency upper gastrointestinal endoscopy in a patient with suspected hemorrhagic shock who tested positive for the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 using the polymerase chain reaction. We performed the procedure in the contamination zone of a specialized coronavirus disease ward with prespecified zones. Full personal protective equipment was worn during the procedure, as recommended by various academic societies, and careful attention was paid to the sterilization of all equipment after the procedure. Thus, emergency endoscopies can be performed safely in patients with coronavirus disease in a suitable environment by using appropriate personal protective equipment and by handling the equipment appropriately.Yoshitsugu MisumiYuki NittaKouichi NonakaMasatoshi KawanaKen ArimuraKatsutoshi TokushigeKazunari TanabeWileyarticleCOVID‐19emergency endoscopygastrointestinal endoscopyinfection controlpersonal protective equipmentDiseases of the digestive system.
