Gastric leiomyoma casusing gastrointestinal bleeding.
Cirugia y Cirujanos 2020
Los leiomiomas gástricos son tumoraciones submucosas benignas, poco comunes, que se originan del músculo liso. Clínicamente son asintomáticos, con buen pronóstico y con pocas complicaciones a largo plazo. Reportamos el caso de un joven de 16 años que se presenta a la clínica con melena y dolor abdominal. En la endoscopia se reporta una tumoración prepilórica, ulcerada y cubierta de fibrina. El estudio histopatológico mostró una neoplasia mesenquimal con positividad inmunohistoquimica para desmina y actina, así como negatividad para C-kit, DOG-1 y S-100, compatible con leiomioma gástrico. Fue intervenido quirúrgicamente realizándose antrectomía laparoscópica con reconstrucción en Y de Roux de manera exitosa. Gastric leiomyomas are rare, benign submucosal tumors originating from smooth muscle cells. They are usually asymptomatic, having good prognosis with limited long-term complications. A 16-year-old young man comes to our clinic and reports melena and abdominal pain. Upper endoscopy revealed a prepyloric, ulcerated, fibrin-covered tumor. Histopathological examination showed a positive immunohistochemical stain mesenchymal neoplasm for desmin and muscle actin, being negative for C-kit, DOG-1 and S100 proteins, consistent with gastric leiomyoma. Antrectomy with Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy was successfully performed.
