Abstract:
Neonatal Dieulafoy lesion is a rare but severe condition that can be life-threatening if not intervened upon in a timely fashion. In the general population, the majority of lesions are successfully treated with endoscopic or angiographic intervention. Surgery is usually reserved for cases that fail endoscopic or angiographic intervention. We present a case of neonatal Dieulafoy lesion that occurred less than 24 h after delivery with hematemesis. The patient required large volume resuscitation and massive transfusion of blood products for acute blood loss. The lesion was successfully treated with surgical ligation after a failed attempt at endoscopic intervention.
