Endoscopic Ultrasonography in the Diagnosis of Gastric Subepithelial Lesions
Subepithelial lesions occasionally found in the stomach of patients undergoing endoscopy may be either benign lesions or tumors with malignant potential. They may also appear due to extrinsic compression. Discrimination of gastric subepithelial lesions begins with meticulous endoscopic examination for size, shape, color, mobility, consistency, and appearance of the overlying mucosa. Accurate di...
متن کاملSplenic Cyst Mimicking Gastric Subepithelial Tumor Diagnosed by Endoscopic Ultrasonography
Recent research reveal that the diagnosis of gastric extraluminal compressions mimicking subepithelial tumor is increasing in numbers as esophagogastroduodenoscopy becomes widespread. Endoscopic ultrasonography is a very useful tool for differentiating extraluminal compressions from subepithelial tumors. Gastric extraluminal compressions are due to compression by either normal adjacent organs o...
متن کاملAn Extremely Rare Case of Gastric Subepithelial Tumor: Gastric Endometriosis
Endometriosis is a disease characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside of the uterine cavity. It is common in women of childbearing age, and is most frequently located in the pelvic cavity. Approximately 10% of endometriosis cases occur outside of the pelvic cavity in locations such as the intestines, genitourinary system, kidneys, lungs, and skin. However, there have been few r...
متن کاملEndoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Sampling of a Metastatic Mucinous Adenocarcinoma Mimicking a Gastric Subepithelial Tumor
Metastatic mucinous adenocarcinoma of appendix origin and mimicking a gastric subepithelial tumor (SET) is very rare. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided sampling is a useful diagnostic method for SETs. However, the cytologic findings of metastatic mucinous adenocarcinoma are unfamiliar to many pathologists and gastroenterologists. These findings present a diagnostic challenge because the introd...
متن کاملDiagnosis by endoscopic mucosal resection of a rare esophageal squamous cell carcinoma mimicking a subepithelial tumor.
an esophageal subepithelial tumor (SET) found incidentally. Esophagogastroduo− denoscopy (EGD) revealed a SET in the lower third of the esophagus (36 cm away from the incisor) (l" Fig. 1). EUS confirmed a hypoechoic tumor, measur− ing 0.8 cm, in the submucosal layer (l" Fig. 2). Benign leiomyoma was the ini− tial impression, and hence no aggressive therapy was performed. The tumor size and appe...
