Hemangiomas are benign vascular gastrointestinal tumours. They are infrequent, located in the submucosa, and can be asymptomatic or cause intestinal obstruction, anaemia or ferropenia. Their initial diagnosis is usually endoscopic despite the absence of pathognomonic features. Traditionally their treatment has been surgical although endoscopic resection is now possible. We present a case of ferropenia resolved after endoscopic resection of a capillary duodenal hemangioma.
血管瘤是良性的胃肠道血管肿瘤。它们较为罕见,位于黏膜下层,可能无症状,也可能导致肠梗阻、贫血或缺铁性贫血。尽管缺乏特征性表现,但它们的初步诊断通常通过内镜检查。传统上其治疗方法是手术,不过现在内镜下切除也是可行的。我们报告一例十二指肠毛细血管瘤经内镜切除后缺铁性贫血得到缓解的病例。
