Abstract
Gastric ulcers are rare in children and are typically seen in cases of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) use, and critical illnesses such as sepsis. The risk of a bleeding ulcer due to use of NSAIDs is dependent on the dose, duration, and the individual NSAIDs, but the bleeding may occur soon after the initiation of NSAID therapy. An experience is described of a 16-month-old infant with a bleeding gastric ulcer after taking the usual dosage of ibuprofen for 3 days. The infant was also successfully treated with endoscopic hemostasis. Even a small amount of ibuprofen may be associated with bleeding gastric ulcers in infant.
