Özet
In this article, the diagnosis and treatment process of a case examined for gastrointestinal system (GIS) bleeding and found to have jejunal angiodysplasia (JA) is presented. A 65-year-old female was examined due to intermittent melena persisting for about one year. Laboratory findings were unremarkable, except for iron deficiency anemia. Upper GIS endoscopy, colonoscopy, computed tomography (CT) and CT angiography were normal. Capsule endoscopy revealed multiple lesions consistent with angiodysplasia in the proximal jejunum. Intra-operative enteroscopy revealed multiple JAs between 10 and 20 cm from the Ligament of Trietz. The patient underwent segmental resection and was discharged on the seventh postoperative day.
