Abstract

Dieulafoy's lesion is characterised by a very small area of ulceration with an arteriole at its base, with normal gastrointestinal mucosa surrounding the site. This lesion is a relatively rare, but potentially life-threatening condition. We report a rare case of a 16-year-old boy who presented with massive gastrointestinal bleeding due to Dieulafoy's lesion.

Özet

Dieulafoy lezyonu çevresindeki gastrointestinal sistem mukozasının normal olduğu çok küçük yüzeyel bir ülser tabanında submukozaya açılan arteriyol ile karakterizedir. Lezyon nispeten nadir görülmekle beraber potansiyel olarak yaşamı tehdit eden bir durumdur. Bu raporda Dieulafoy lezyonuna bağlı masif gastrointestinal kanaması olan 16 yaşında bir erkek hasta sunulmaktadır.
