[Exceptional etiologies in upper digestive tract bleeding ].
7 cases, considered as being true etiological exceptions selected from 756 upper gastrointestinal bleeding, are presented. The causes of bleeding were: pancreatic pseudocyst with intracystic hemorrhage broken into duodenum (2 cases), the nonepithelial gastroduodenal tumor (3 cases), the aneurysm of gastroduodenal artery broken into duodenum (1 case) and the aortoduodenal fistula in one patient with a bilateral aorto-iliac by-pass (1 case). The etiological diagnosis could not be established in any cases before the operations. All the cases were operated on, the operation being imposed by the severity of bleeding and having the haemostasis as a main purpose.
