空肠黏膜下血管瘤引起大量消化道出血:病例报告

Abstract

Small intestinal hemangiomas are uncommon tumors that frequently present with gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB). Diagnosis, detection, and treatment can be challenging and may require surgical intervention. An 81-year-old female presented with melena. Video capsule endoscopy revealed active bleeding in the proximal jejunum and push enteroscopy identified a polypoid nodule with central umbilication. The patient underwent laparoscopic resection and jejunal submucosal hemangioma was detected. Submucosal hemangiomas are a rare cause of GIB. As the most common site of submucosal hemangiomas is the mid-jejunum, they are not easy to detect. Surgical intervention is usually required for a definitive diagnosis and definitive treatment.
