Core Tip	Intractable bleeding caused by radiation-induced gastritis is rare. We described a 69-year-old man with intractable hemorrhagic gastritis induced by postoperative radiotherapy for the treatment of esophageal carcinoma. Anti-secretary therapy with or without octreotide seemed in vain. Finally growth hormone was used in the treatment of hemorrhage for two weeks, hemostasis was successfully achieved. This is the first report that growth hormone has been used to control intractable bleeding caused by radiation-induced gastritis.
