title: [Jejunal pseudo-diverticular hemorrhage].
abstract: Within six months we observed two elderly female patients with intestinal bleeding from jejunal pseudodiverticula. A 91-year-old woman with multiple pseudodiverticula was treated conservatively. In the other, aged 86, persistent intensive bleeding had to be halted by resection of the solitary pseudodiverticulum. Both very elderly women were discharged from hospital fully recovered. The two cases are discussed and the literature is reviewed.
