Endoscopic resection of rectal granular-cell tumor using elastic band ligation.
Granular cell tumor (GCT) is a rare neoplasm that develops in the gut's submucosal layer. We report the case of a male with a history of surgically excised colon neoplasm where a rectal polyp was identified during a follow-up endoscopy. The lesion, eventually identified as a GCT, was endoscopically removed by band ligation-assisted mucosectomy. This may be the second report of a colorectal GCT ...
متن کاملGastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST).
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) may be defined as morphologically spindle cell, epithelioid, or occasionally pleomorphic mesenchymal tumours of the gastrointestinal tract that usually express the KIT protein and harbour mutation of a gene that encodes for a type III receptor tyrosine kinase (either KIT or PDGFRA). In Caucasian populations their annual incidence is 10 to 15 cases per mil...
متن کاملEndoscopic ultrasound-guided therapy of a gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST).
A 90-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of recurrent upper gastrointestinal bleeding due to a 5-cm gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) in the lesser curve of the stomach (●" Fig.1). After conventional endoscopic sclerotherapy failed to achieve a response, and because of the patient’s condition, it was decided to perform endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided therapy. The lesion was...
متن کاملSegmental resection of the duodenum for gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST)
BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are the most frequent mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. The biological appearance of these tumors reaches from small lesions with benign appearance to aggressive sarcomas. Only 3-5% of GISTs are localized in the duodenum. There is a controversy, if duodenal GISTs should be treated by a duodenopancreatectomy or by a limited resect...
متن کاملEndoscopic Resection for Rectal Carcinoid Tumors: Comparision of Polypectomy and Endoscopic Submucosal Resection with Band Ligation
BACKGROUND/AIMS Rectal carcinoid tumors, at diagnosis, are as small as 10 mm or less in about 80% of patients. These tumors are generally removed by endoscopic resection. The aim of this study was to compare treatment efficacy and safety between endoscopic submucosal resection with band ligation (ESMR-L) and conventional polypectomy. METHODS Between January 2005 and September 2010, a total of...
