RESUMEN
Dieulafoy's lesion is a rare vascular malformation that can cause massive acute gastrointestinal hemorrhage threatening the patient's life. This correspondence to the editor outlines the clinical presentation of a patient in whom, owing to the utilization of capsule endoscopy followed by subsequent colonoscopy, a diagnosis of hemorrhage resulting from a Dieulafoy's lesion located in the colon, a relatively uncommon site, was successfully established. Following intervention involving the application of hemoclips, the patient experienced a favorable clinical evolution.
