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.
