Abstract

A 9-year-old boy with Henoch-Schönlein purpura had a duodenal ulcer. Endoscopic injection with pure ethanol was performed on a pulsating visible vessel in the third part of the duodenum, resulting in complete hemostasis. A bleeding ulcer, although rare, may be a serious gastrointestinal complication of Henoch-Schönlein purpura and may require aggressive intervention.
