Although Dieulafoy lesion can occur in any part of the gastrointestinal tract, its occurrence in the rectum is rare. Rectal Dieulafoy lesions have been associated with advanced age, renal failure, burns, liver transplantation and cirrhosis. Here, we report on a case of massive bleeding from a rectal Dieulafoy lesion after lung decortication surgery in a 57-year-old male patient with alcoholic cirrhosis. Although rare, a rectal Dieulafoy lesion should be included in the differential diagnosis of massive lower gastrointestinal bleeding in a patient with cirrhosis.

Dieulafoy 병변은 비정상적으로 확장된 점막하 동맥이 소화관 내로 노출되어 발생하는 병변으로 위장관 출혈의 드문 원인이다. 저자들은 폐렴으로 입원 중 다량의 토혈과 혈변을 보인 9세 남아에서 상부 소화관 내시경으로 Dieulafoy 병변을 진단하고 순수 에탄올 국소 주사법으로 성공적으로 치료하였기에 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Dieulafoy lesions, vascular anomalies typically found along the gastrointestinal tract, have been viewed as rare and obscure causes of sudden intestinal bleeding, especially in pediatric patients. Since their discovery in the late 19th century, the reported incidence has increased. This is due to an increased awareness of, and knowledge about, their presentation and to advanced endoscopic diagnosis and therapy. Our patient was a three-year-old male, without a complex medical history. He presented to the emergency department with acute hematemesis with blood clots and acute anemia requiring blood transfusion. Endoscopy revealed four isolated Dieulafoy lesions along the lesser curvature of the stomach, which were treated with an epinephrine injection. The Dieulafoy lesion, although thought to be rare, should be considered when investigating an acute gastrointestinal bleed. These lesions have been successfully treated endoscopically. Appropriate anticipation and preparation for diagnosis and therapy can lead to optimal outcomes for the pediatric patient.

Dieulafoy's disease, a vascular anomaly mainly in the upper stomach, is a rare but potentially life-threatening cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Pathogenesis is still controversial, but the most accepted theory is that a persistent caliber vessel in the submucosa is exposed by a small mucosal erosion leading to massive bleeding. The bleeding site is usually within 6 cm of the esophagogastric junction in the cardia or fundus of the stomach. The treatment of choice is therapeutic endoscopy or surgery. The age of patients reported is mainly between 50 and 70 years, and patients of pediatric age are extremely rare. We are reporting a 5-year-old male patient who had Dieulafoy's disease which was diagnosed by emergency upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Endoscopic finding was a nodular lesion with an adherent clot on the lessor curvature of the stomach 2 cm below the esophagogastric junction. Epinephrine and $Beriplast^{(R)}$ was injected in the lesion. On the second day after endoscopic sclerotherapy, the patient had recurred massive hematemesis and accompanying shock. So we performed gastrotomy and ligation. After the operation, he showed an improved general condition and was discharged at the 12th hospital day.
