Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST) are rare
gastrointestinal tumours and are one of the causes of
obscure gastrointestinal bleeding. We report a case of
massive gastrointestinal bleeding secondary to bleeding
jejunal GIST in a 43 years old gentleman. Endoscopic
intervention failed to identify the source of bleeding and CT
Angiography (CTA) showed a jejunal mass and patient
underwent laparotomy and resection of the bleeding jejunal
GIST. This article highlights the rare cause of the massive GI
bleeding and also emphasise the role of CTA in obscure GI
bleeding
