CERVIN-BAEZ, Cristhel; HARO-ORDUNO, Sigifredo; GONZALEZ-ALTAMIRANO, Jorge y ARAGON-OCHOA, Francisco Rafael. Lower Gastrointestinal Bleeding Due to Rectal Dieulafoy’s Lesion: A Case Report. Rev. colomb. Gastroenterol. [online]. 2024, vol.39, n.1, pp.68-70. Epub 16-Mayo-2024. ISSN 0120-9957. https://doi.org/10.22516/25007440.994.
Dieulafoy’s lesion is a 1-3 mm vascular lesion in the submucosa and represents 1-2% of total GI bleeding; 80% are located in the stomach and 15% in the duodenum, while its finding in the rest of the GI tract is <5%. This work presents the case of a 79-year-old male patient who went into hypovolemic shock due to GI bleeding secondary to a rectal Dieulafoy’s lesion with endoscopic and subsequent surgical management.
