abstract={Dieulafoy¡¯s lesion (DL) is a relatively rare, but potentially life-threatening condition. It accounts for 1-2% of acute Gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding. DL is an uncommon, but important cause of gastrointestinal bleeding in which hemorrhage occurs from a pinpoint, non-ulcerated arterial lesion. [1] DLs are usually located in the stomach, most commonly in people between the ages 50 and 70 years. [2] We present a case of GI bleeding resulting from Dieulafoy lesion of the stomach, successfully treated with endoscopic intervention.},
