Title: Congenital arteriovenous malformation rupturing into a true jejunal diverticulum. Author: Chin NW, Lai CH, Harisiadis SA, Chapman I. Journal: Am J Gastroenterol; 1989 Aug; 84(8):972-4. PubMed ID: 2502910. Abstract: Massive hemorrhage from the gastrointestinal tract of an elderly patient due to a hitherto unreported cause is described. A congenital arteriovenous malformation located in the submucosa of a true jejunal diverticulum ruptured into the lumen. Both selective angiographic demonstration and histologic documentation of the bleeding point are presented. The simultaneous presence of these two entities is probably not a coincidence and is discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
