Abstract:
Therapeutic endoscopy is followed by complications in less than 5% of cases. We report a case of an intramural duodenal hematoma after local endoscopic injection of 28 mL of adrenaline 1/10,000 for a bleeding duodenal peptic ulcer. This hematoma was associated with acute pancreatitis and was revealed by a hemoperitoneum.
