Successful Endoscopic Management of Non-Healing Perforated Duodenal Ulcer with Polyglycolic Acid Sheet and Fibrin Glue
نویسندگان
چکیده
In recent years, treatment techniques in which polyglycolic acid sheets are applied to various situations with fibrin glue have exhibited great clinical potential, and previous studies have reported safety and efficacy. We describe closure of a non-healing perforated duodenal ulcer with the use of a polyglycolic acid sheet and fibrin glue in an elderly patient who was not a candidate for surgery.

Endoscopic Management of Gastrointestinal Leaks and Perforation with Polyglycolic Acid Sheets
Gastrointestinal (GI) leakage, fistulae, and perforations can be serious and life threatening. There has been a paradigm shift in the management approach of these conditions, from surgical to conservative, including endoscopic management. Here, we report two cases of endoscopic closure of a GI fistula and perforation using polyglycolic acid (PGA) sheets with fibrin glue. The first case is of an...
متن کاملEndoscopic tissue shielding to prevent delayed perforation associated with endoscopic submucosal dissection for duodenal neoplasms.
In Japan, endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is increasingly performed for gastrointestinal neoplasms. However, ESD has not been widely applied to duodenal neoplasms. Postoperative delayed perforation occurs frequently because of exposure of pancreatic juice to the duodenum [1]. Regarding the closure technique after ESD, the usefulness of clip closure has been reported [2], but we encounter...
متن کاملDouble-balloon enteroscopy-assisted closure of perforated duodenal diverticulum using polyglycolic acid sheets.
Polyglycolic acid (PGA) sheets and fibrin glue adhere firmly and for a long time, are naturally absorbable, and are used in various fields, including endoscopic therapy [1–8]. We report a case of perforation of a duodenal diverticulum that was treated with an endoscopic tissue-shielding method using PGA sheets and fibrin glue. A 58-year-oldmanwas hospitalized in the nephrology department of our...
متن کاملFilling and shielding for postoperative gastric perforations of endoscopic submucosal dissection using polyglycolic acid sheets and fibrin glue
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Many medical institutions in Japan perform endoscopic mucosal dissection (ESD) to treat early gastric cancer. Perforations can occur during ESD, and clipping has been reported as useful for treating small pinhole perforations. However, it is often difficult to close postoperative perforations because they usually have large diameters, and the muscle layer around the pe...
متن کاملTissue shielding with polyglycolic acid sheets and fibrin glue on ulcers induced by endoscopic submucosal dissection in a porcine model
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS The safety and efficacy of the application of polyglycolic acid (PGA) sheets with fibrin glue to ulcers induced by endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) have not been established in the treatment of lesions of the gastrointestinal tract, in which the influence of digestive fluid and peristalsis may affect treatment, and there may also be a risk of infection. The aims ...
