Mallory-Weiss 眼泪在胃的内视镜的 submucosal 解剖期间

A 78-year-old woman was referred to our department for treatment of an early gastric cancer. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) demonstrated a flat elevated lesion and a polypoid lesion on the greater curvature of the antrum. Histological analysis of, endoscopic biopsy samples taken from these lesions revealed an adenocarcinoma and a hyperplastic polyp, respectively. ESD was conducted for removal of the lesions. Carbon dioxide (CO2) in- stead of room air was used for insufflation, and the patient was adequately sedated without struggling or vomiting during the treatment. No significant bleeding from the lesion was observed during ESD, but fresh blood was identified endoscopically. Surprisingly, a Mallory- Weiss tear with active bleeding was detected on the lesser curvature of the gastric corpus. A total of eight hemoclips were applied for hemostasis. Both lesions were completely removed en bloc, and no bleeding or perforation developed after ESD. Histologically, the first lesion was apapillary carcinoma limited to the mucosal layer and without lymphovascular invasion or involvement of the surgical margins, while the second lesion was a benign hyperplastic polyp.
