Abstract:
Dieulafoy's lesion is a rare distinetive arterial malformation that can cause massive gastrointestinal henorrhage. Although in most cases the lesion is encountered in the proximal stomach within 6 cm of the gastroesophageal junction, similar lesions have been described in the antrum, duodenum, jejunum, colon, and rectum. We report 3 unusually located Dieulafoy-like lesion, two gastric antrum and one jejunum in patient who had gastrojejunostomy for pancreatic caneer. After a year follow up there was no bleeding episode in patient after endoscopic treatment.
