Abstract
We encountered a rare case of postbulbar ulcer caused by adjuvant chemotherapy after gastrectomy. A 64 year-old woman, who received chemotherapy with CDDP-5-FU after gastrectomy, developed severe hematemesis. Endoscopic examination revealed a gigantic ulcer at the anal site of Vater's papilla. The ulcer was healed with PPI and soft diet.
