Bleeding gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) have historically been managed with either surgical resection or radiologic embolization. Occasional reports exist of endoscopic therapies such as hemoclips [1], endoloop ligation [2], and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided angiotherapy [3]. We herein present the case of an elderly patient with recurrent bleeding from a large gastric GIST who was successfully treated with EUS-guided angiotherapy.
