Gastric lipomas are rare benign mesenchymal tumors of the stomach.
We report a 41 year old, morbid obese male, admitted for elective laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Thorough preoperative assessment revealed a gastric lipoma in the antrum of the stomach measuring 3×3cm. Due to the patient's preference, surgical resection of the lipoma was done along with the laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy procedure.
In our case, we report a rare case of submucosal gastric lipoma successfully removed during a laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. To our knowledge, this is the second case report in the medical English literature that reports removing this rare gastric tumor during an elective bariatric procedure.
This case report presents an effective treatment option for patients in need of bariatric procedure and gastric lipoma resection. This case also highlights the importance of through preoperative and intraoperative assessment for all bariatric patients.
胃脂肪瘤是一种罕见的胃良性间叶组织肿瘤。
我们报告一例41岁病态肥胖男性，因择期腹腔镜袖状胃切除术入院。全面的术前评估发现胃窦部有一个3×3厘米的胃脂肪瘤。由于患者的偏好，脂肪瘤的手术切除与腹腔镜袖状胃切除术同时进行。
在我们的病例中，我们报告了一例罕见的黏膜下胃脂肪瘤在腹腔镜袖状胃切除术中成功切除的病例。据我们所知，这是医学英文文献中第二例报告在择期减肥手术中切除这种罕见胃肿瘤的病例。
本病例报告为需要减肥手术和胃脂肪瘤切除的患者提供了一种有效的治疗选择。本病例还强调了对所有减肥患者进行全面术前和术中评估的重要性。
