Abstract
We present the case of a 45-year-old male with repeated episodes of upper gastrointestinal bleeding due to a gastric arteriovenous malformation (AVM). The case underscores the diagnostic challenges, multidisciplinary decision-making, and management considerations associated with gastrointestinal vascular malformations. Given the rarity of gastric AVMs and their potential for serious complications, this report highlights the importance of an integrated approach to diagnosis and treatment, including advanced imaging and endovascular interventions.
