Dieulafoy's lesion (DL) is a small gastrointestinal (GI) mucosal erosion due to an abnormally large caliber and persistent submucosal arteriole. Typically occurring in adults, they are an extremely rare cause of GI bleeding in pediatrics. We report a case of multiple jejunal DLs in a 9‐year‐old girl with posterior fossa brain malformations, hemangiomas, arterial lesions, cardiac abnormalities, eye abnormalities (PHACE) syndrome, and the first described use of rapamycin in the treatment of pediatric DLs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
