Abstract
Gastrointestinal arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is a relatively uncommon disease, and is almost found by the investigation of GI bleeding. We report a case of cecal AVM with massive hemorrhage. A 50-year-old man was admitted to the hospital because of massive melena and hemorrhagic shock. Although colonoscopic examination detected a submucoal tumor of the cecum, obvious bleeding point was not identified. Emergent abdominal angiography, however, revealed a cecal AVM. Ileo-cecal resection was quickly and successfully performed. For the patient presenting with massive melena, emergent abdominal angiography is highly recommended when the bleeding point is not identified by endoscopic examination.
