Duodenal lipomas are relatively uncommon and are rarely responsible for clinical symptoms. Occasionally, searching for aetiology of gastrointestinal bleeding leads to the final diagnosis of duodenal lipomas. Here, we present the case of a 68-year-old woman who suffered with repeated melena and weight loss. Endoscopy, abdominal computed tomography (CT) and histopathological outcomes are describe...
Duodenal varices are ectopic portosystemic shunts that do not tend to result in gastrointestinal bleeding. Balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration is an established treatment for gastric varices. We report a 60-year-old man with melena due to ruptured duodenal varices originating at an inferior pancreaticoduodenal vein; drainage was into a gonadal vein. His ruptured duodenal varice...
A 67-year-old man was admitted to the emergency department with a recent history of melena and progressive fatigue. He had a past medical history of hypertension, dyslipidemia, ischemic heart disease, chronic renal failure and was on antiaggregation therapy. Physical examination showed pallor and hemodynamic stability. Laboratory workup revealed normocytic anemia (hemoglobin 9 g/dL; normal: 13-...
We report a case of a 44-year-old male patient who presented with melena and hemodynamic instability. The endoscopic investigation of the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract was initially negative, but a repeat gastroduodenoscopy revealed a submucosal mass in the lesser curvature of the stomach with central erosion, primarily perceived as ectopic pancreas, but it was later discovered that it...
Lipoma is called the universal tumour. It can occur anywhere in the body. Caecal lipomas are considered rare probably because they are often asymptomatic or only mildly symptomatic, however they can cause significant pain, melena or diarrhoea or more serious conditions like intussusception and intestinal obstruction.We report a case of caecal lipoma presented as recurrent appendicitis reviewing...
Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is an autosomal dominant disorder, which is uncommon anomaly to recurrent gastrointestinal bleeding. Although there are several forms of therapy ranging from local therapy to operations or drug therapy, there is a lack of more effective treatment for the disease. In this report, we presented a Chinese patient with recurrent melena due to gastric angio...
Patients with locally advanced disease can have significant local symptoms. The most common symptoms from local extension are pain, bleeding (hematemesis, melena) and obstruction (dysphagia, vomiting). These can cause a significant impact on a patient's quality of life. Radiation therapy is used to control these symptoms with modern 3-dimensional conformal techniques or brachytherapy. The aim o...
A broad search of the available literature yielded no other report of gastric lipoma of that size (13.5 x 6.5 x 4.5 cm) at this early age. The patient (a 20-year-old man with giant lipoma in the anterior gastric wall) presented with haematemesis and melena after excessive alcohol consumption. Gastric resection was performed. At 5-year follow up the patient is healthy and doing well. Epidemiolog...
Duplications of the alimentary tract are rare congenital malformations and may be found anywhere along the alimentary tract. Their importance lies in the fact that they readily mimic other surgical disease processes and may result in significant morbidity if left untreated. We report a case of ileal duplication with heterotopic gastric mucosa presenting with melena and peptic ulcer perforation ...
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Primary neoplasms of the small intestine are relatively rare in all age groups, accounting for about 5 % of all gastrointestinal tumors 1. Cavernous hemangiomas of the small intestine are also rare, can cause gastrointestinal bleeding, and are extremely difficult to diagnose preoperatively 2. We present a patient who presented with melena and iron deficiency anemia, fo...
