چکیده

Un varón de 70 años de edad se sometió a una endoscopia que reveló un pólipo adenomatoso en el colon ascendente (fig. 1). Se removió en la misma sesión por medio de la colocación de 4 clips endoscópicos (fig. 2). Seis horas después de la polipectomía endoscópica, el paciente presentó sangrado intermitente severo del intestino inferior con un estado inicial de inestabilidad hemodinámica: frecuencia cardiaca > 80 lpm y presión arterial sistólica < 100 mmHg. Después del acuerdo multidisciplinario se sometió al paciente a una angiografía por sustracción digital selectiva urgente de la arteria mesentérica superior que mostró la presencia de sangrado activo en el colon ascendente en el área de la polipectomía endoscópica previa (fig. 3A). La embolización transarterial superselectiva del sangrado activo se realizó exitosamente (fig. 3B y C). El sangrado del intestino inferior desapareció y el paciente presentó estabilidad hemodinámica inmediatamente después de la embolización

We report a renal transplant recipient infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis who presented with severe intestinal bleeding. The bleeding was the result of an injured vessel of mesenteric artery distal branches diagnosed by traditional arteriography and computed tomography angiography. As the patient's condition was serious, the only considered rescue therapy was endovascular treatment. The e...

Recent advances in endovascular techniques for management of acute nonvariceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding.

Over the past two decades, transcatheter arterial embolization has become the first-line therapy for the management of upper gastrointestinal bleeding that is refractory to endoscopic hemostasis. Advances in catheter-based techniques and newer embolic agents, as well as recognition of the effectiveness of minimally invasive treatment options, have expanded the role of interventional radiology i...

Jejunojejunal intussusception after polypectomy by spiral enteroscopy in Peutz-Jeghers syndrome.

Enteroscopy makes it possible to resect small-bowel polyps and avoid intestinal obstruction inpatientswithPeutz–Jeghers syndrome [1]. We report the case of a 54-year-old man with Peutz–Jeghers syndrome, referred to our center because of recurrent episodes of intestinal occlusion. Computed tomography showed a voluminous polyp in the proximal part of the jejunum causing small-bowel obstruction. W...
