چکیده
Ulceration in a blind loop can lead to massive gastrointestinal tract (GIT) bleeding. A 13-year old girl presented with symptomatic melena requiring repeated blood transfusion since childhood. She was an operated case of small bowel atresia in neonatal life. Her upper and lower gastrointestinal endoscopies were normal. Operation showed presence of multiple ulcers in two blind loops (parts of previous side to side anastomosis) and at the anastomotic site. She underwent resection and end-to-end anastomosis of the small bowel leading to complete resolution of melena and anemia.
