Endoscopic Management of Mallory-Weiss Tearing

Endoscopic Management of Mallory-Weiss Tearing

Mallory-Weiss tearing (MWT) is a common cause of non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Although the majority of patients with bleeding MWT require no intervention other than hemodynamic supports, spectrum of MWT is wide, and the condition sometimes results in a fatal outcome. Endoscopic management to stop the bleeding may be required during the index endoscopy, especially in those with ...

Mallory-Weiss Tear during Esophagogastroduodenoscopy

Mallory-Weiss tears (MWTs) are mucosal lacerations caused by forceful retching and are typically located at the gastroesophageal junction. Reported cases of MWT with serious complications seen in esophagogastroduodenoscopy are limited. We report MWT in an 81-year-old woman who presented with gastric perforation by esophagogastroduodenoscopy. We discuss and indicate that hiatal hernia, atrophic ...

A case of oesophageal haematoma associated with evidence of Mallory-Weiss tear on endoscopy that helps to support this hypothesis is presented.
