title: Aneurysm of the gastroduodenal artery.
abstract: Report on the case of a woman having a history of duodenal ulcer, who underwent six unsuccessful operations for several hemorrhages of the digestive tract. When angiography was finally carried out, this revealed an aneurysm of the gastroduodenal artery, probably located at the base of the ulcer. The diagnosis was verified at the subsequent operation which made it possible to arrest the haemorrhage by ligating the aneurysm.
