ABSTRACT
A ten year old child with extrahepatic portal venous obstruction had recurrent upper gastrointestinal bleeding after endoscopic variceal sclerotherapy. Sclerotherapy-induced esophageal ulcer complicated by candidiasis was found to be the source of bleeding. This as yet unrecognised complication of sclerotherapy requires prompt diagnosis and early antifungal therapy.
