| Abstract | A 50-year-old woman with end-stage kidney disease was admitted for a living-donor kidney transplantation. On post-transplantation day 6, she developed antibody-mediated rejection and was treated with plasmapheresis, rituximab and intravenous immunoglobulin. 1 week later, she developed severe upper gastrointestinal bleeding from multiple duodenal ulcers along the bulb and the third part of the duodenum. She underwent 11 sessions of endoscopic and interventional therapies comprised with the combination of various techniques including bipolar coaptation, hemoclipping, band ligation and angiogram with coil embolisation of duodenal branch of gastroduodenal artery. Histopathology showed neither any organism nor any feature of graft-versus-host disease. However, empiric treatments with intravenous proton pump inhibitor and broad-spectrum antibiotics/antifungal were given but failed to heal the ulcer, and bleeding recurred from the new developed ulcers. Finally, a single dose of intravenous infliximab was administered to stop bleeding. The patient responded dramatically with rapid ulcers healing and there was no recurrent bleeding during a 3-month follow-up. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
