Emergency Endoscopic Hemostasis Using the Endoscopic Mucosal Resection Technique for Severe Bleeding From Early Gastric Cancer: A Case Report.
Curēus 2024 Februrary
Bleeding from gastric cancer may lead to severe anemia and hypovolemic shock, and can be a life-threatening condition in affected patients; thus, achieving hemostasis is essential to improving their clinical course. While endoscopic hemostasis is recommended as the hemostatic modality of first choice, endoscopic hemostasis involving the endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) technique is also being used, though under-reported. An 85-year-old man diagnosed with bleeding from gastric cancer was raced to our hospital for hemostasis. Emergency esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) revealed a 45 mm-sized elevated lesion involving the coagula due to dripping bleeding from the surface of the posterior wall of the gastric lower body. EMR was performed without any technical difficulty, and hemostasis was achieved immediately. The patient was discharged without rebleeding. This case appears to support the usefulness of EMR as an emergency endoscopic hemostatic modality for severe bleeding from early gastric cancer.
