Gastroduodenal Intussusception, Intermittent Biliary Obstruction and Biochemical Pancreatitis due to a Gastric Hyperplastic Polyp
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present the case of a 76-year-old man with gastroduodenal intussusception secondary to a gastric hyperplastic polyp. Intussusception in the adult population occurs infrequently. Our patient presented with gastroduodenal intussusception, which is very uncommon and accounts for <10% of all types of intussusception. This case is unique in that partial endoscopic resection of the gastric hyperplastic polyp resolved the patient's gastroduodenal intussusception, biliary obstruction and biochemical pancreatitis without the need for surgical intervention.

Gastroduodenal Intussusception Resulting from Large Hyperplastic Polyp
Gastroduodenal intussusception is an infrequent cause of gastrointestinal obstructive disease. Benign neoplasms, gastrointestinal stromal tumors and pedunculated adenocarcinomas of less than 5 cm have been reported to cause gastroduodenal intussusception. We report a case of 76-year-old woman who was presented with a 3-day history of nausea and vomiting due to upper gastrointestinal obstruction...

BACKGROUND Duodenal Peutz-Jeghers polyp is a rare cause of duodenal or biliary obstruction. However, a sporadic Peutz-Jeghers polyp leading to simultaneous biliary and duodenal obstruction has not been reported. CASE PRESENTATION We report a case of a 25-year-old Sri Lankan woman presenting with features of recurrent upper small intestinal obstruction and biliary obstruction. She had clinical...
متن کاملEndoscopic management of multiple large antral hyperplastic polyps causing gastric outlet obstruction.
Gastric hyperplastic polyps are often asymptomatic and are found incidentally at upper endoscopy performed for unrelated reasons. Although they are considered a benign lesion, all symptomatic polyps should be removed for a more reliable histological diagnosis, resolution of symptoms and to prevent potential malignant transformation. In fact, there are no significant difference between pure gast...
متن کاملA case report of pyloric intussusception secondary to helicobacter pylori hyperplastic polyps.
We report a middle age man who presented with intermittent vomiting and loss of weight. Oesophagogastroduodenoscopy showed numerous antral hyperplastic polyps with inaccessible duodenum. Contrast enhanced computed topography demonstrated a classical target sign of intussusception. This finding was later confirmed at laparotomy. This rare presentation and management strategy is discussed.
متن کاملAntral hyperplastic polyp causing intermittent gastric outlet obstruction: Case report
BACKGROUND Hyperplastic polyps are the most common polypoid lesions of the stomach. Rarely, they cause gastric outlet obstruction by prolapsing through the pyloric channel, when they arise in the prepyloric antrum. CASE PRESENTATION A 62-year-old woman presented with intermittent nausea and vomiting of 4 months duration. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed a 30 mm prepyloric sessile pol...
