Esophageal Dieulafoy Lesion: A Rare and Potentially Fatal Entity.

A 35-year-old gentleman presented acutely to the emergency department with large volume haematemesis and melena. Following adequate initial resuscitation, the patient underwent emergency upper gastrointestinal endoscopy which revealed a dilated tortuous submucosal vessel which was actively bleeding at the midpoint of the esophagus. This was consistent with a Dieulafoy lesion. However, its position in the midpoint of the esophagus is rare. Our patient recovered well following intervention.
