Abstract
Here, we report a case of PNH with gastroduodenal lesions likely caused
by transient mucosal ischemia due to thrombosis. When patients with PNH
present with abdominal symptoms, thrombosis-induced gastrointestinal
injury should be considered. Recognition of gastric patchy redness on
esophagogastroduodenoscopy may help make the diagnosis of this
potentially serious complication.13 Aug 2020Submitted to Clinical Case Reports 18 Aug 2020Submission Checks Completed
