Peptic ulcer is represented by loss of gastric or duodenal mucosal substance. It’s been considered a rare disease at the paediatric age. The main cause is represented by Helicobacter pylori infections or drugs administration. The authors present a case of nine-year-old child with triple gastric ulcer without Helicobacter pylori infection or prior treatment with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or other medication with possible impact.
