  • Title: [Aortic regurgitation and aortic stenosis associated with gastrointestinal bleeding. Report of a case (author's transl)].
    Author: Krivoy N, Osterweil D, Adler O, Alroy G.
    Journal: Med Clin (Barc); 1980 Jun 25; 75(2):69-70. PubMed ID: 6967545.
    Abstract:
    A 67-year-old woman with a double atherosclerotic aortic valvulopathy and rheumatoid arthritis presented recurrent episodes of gastrointestinal bleeding. Selective arteriography of the superior mesenteric artery demonstrated the existence of vascular malformations with extravasation of the contrast. The physiopathology of this lesion is unknown, but its incidence in adulthood suggests a degenerative process. A selective angiogram of the superior mesenteric artery is mandatory in patients with gastrointestinal bleeding and double aortic valvulopathy in order to establish the etiological diagnosis of the hemorrhage.
