Özet
Dieulafoy lesion is a rarely seen, superficial vascular lesion of the gastric mucosa that can lead to severe and recurrent bleeding which can be life-threatening. It is characterized by massive hemorrhages that can occur as a result of protrusion of a large artery from a submucosal defect. Endoscopic injection and mechanical and thermal methods are frequently used in traditional treatment. Herein, we presented a 61-year-old women who was admitted with upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage owing to Dieulafoy lesion who was successfully treated with over-the-scope clip as the first choice of treatment. © 2021 The Author(s).
