ABSTRACT: Upper gastrointestinal bleeding in infancy is relatively unusual. This report describes a male infant with gastric teratoma who presented with one episode of melena along with upper abdominal distension since the neonatal period. Plain X-ray of the abdomen revealed a large abdominal mass with calcification. The lesion has been resected and the child is doing well.
