Abstract Dieulafoy’s lesion is a rare cause of massive digestive hemorrhage that can be fatal. Bleeding occurs from a vascular abnormality defined by the presence in the submucosa of an abnormally large aberrant artery. Gastric localization is the most frequently reported, but rare cases have been confirmed by histology. We report the case of a 32-year-old man operated on an emergency for massive upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage, which is life threatening and not allowing to locate the lesion with the endoscopic examination. A Dieulafoy’s gastric lesion was diagnosed intraoperatively, treated by wide wedge resection and confirmed by histology.
