%X gastrointestinal bleeding is a common cause of admission to emergency services. hemorrhages originated from arteriovenous malformations in the stomach have been rarely described in the literature. embolization offers a good chance for the control of bleeding. we describe the case of a patient with recurrent hematemesis and melena whose angiography identified arteriovenous malformations in the greater curvature of the stomach. the bleeding was treated by arterial embolization.
