Description
Acute hemorrhagic rectal ulcer (AHRU) is a relatively rare disease that can lead to massive hematochezia. It presents as a sudden and brisk painless bleed that is common among elderly patients who have chronic conditions such as coronary artery diseases associated with the use of anti-platelets, diabetes mellitus, hypoalbuminemia, liver diseases, sepsis, stroke, and chronic renal failure on hemodialysis. Here, we report a first case of acute hemorrhagic rectal ulcer in our country, with the above-mentioned risk factors and succsessfully endoscopic hemostatic treatment via dual combination therapy wich consist in dilute epinephrine injection and clipsing with finally achieved hemostasis from rectal ulcer.
