摘要：

Peptic ulcer disease (PUD) can lead to life-threatening bleeding. Endoscopy is a primary intervention used to locate the site of bleeding and maintain hemostasis. When considering multiple risk factors to operative intervention or failed initial endoscopic procedure in patients, the preferred treatment for acute gastrointestinal bleeding remains endovascular coiling to embolize the culprit's vessel. We report a case of a 57-year-old female who presents with melena secondary to gastric ulcer not amenable to endoscopic interventions. Various embolization techniques are available demanding clinicians' attention towards their role in managing ulcer bleeds and their impact on the controlling bleeds.
