[Cushing's ulcer in a child (apropos of a case)].
Cushing's ulcus is an uncommon disease occurring during the regression of acute neurologic diseases. It counts for 30 p.c. of causes of acute digestive hemorrhages in children. Prognosis is very bad and any surgical treatment has to be as preservative as possible, classically achieving a hemostatic ligation associated with a pyloroplasty and a truncal vagotomy. Mortality rate is 20 p.c.
