Abstract： Gastric antral vascular ectasia (GAVE) is a rare disease,and it is often associated with serious upper gastrointestinal bleeding of unknown origin.The pathogenesis of GAVE is complex,and its treatment is difficult.In this paper,we describe the treatment process for a case of GAVE and discuss the efficacy and safety of argon plasma coagulation for this rare condition.
