Example text

Etiology Acute gastrointestinal bleeding is a common clinical problem in the USA requiring more than 300,000 hospitalizations annually [9]. It is estimated that Dieulafoy’s lesion comprises less than 5 % of all gastrointestinal bleeding cases [6]. In adults it presents twice more in men than women [10], and can surface in any age group [11]; Fig. 1 Image obtained from Senger et al. demonstrating a Dieulafoy’s lesion in the submucosa. Elastin stain (objective lens ×10) confirms the presence of elastin in the wall (#) alluding to the vessel’s arterial origination [2] 4 Management of Dieulafoy’s Lesions 43 however it more commonly affects those that are 50 and older [8].

Medical literature suggests several theories on the reasons for Dieulafoy’s lesions. The presence of pediatric cases alludes to a possible congenital component [11, 13]. No family linkage has been established, but risk factors such as the usage of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), alcohol, tobacco, or history of peptic ulcer disease have been suggested [2]. The theories of what causes the erosion or an injury to the vessel to initiate the rupture vary; the most prominent three are the following: pulsations of the abnormally large artery may disrupt the mucosa and expose the artery to the gastric contents which in turn may lead to rupture, gastric “wear and tear” promotes thrombosis within the artery leading to necrosis, and age-related atrophy [14].
