Gastrointestinal bleeding secondary to malignancy can be difficult to manage with traditional endoscopic therapies. Endoscopic suturing is a relatively new technology with limited data available regarding its use for bleeding related to peptic ulcer disease. We describe a case where endoscopic suturing was successfully used to control gastrointestinal hemorrhage from a previously known malignant ulceration that was refractory to traditional interventions.
继发于恶性肿瘤的胃肠道出血采用传统内镜治疗可能难以处理。内镜缝合是一项相对较新的技术,关于其用于消化性溃疡疾病相关出血的可用数据有限。我们描述了一例病例,其中内镜缝合成功用于控制来自先前已知的恶性溃疡的胃肠道出血,该溃疡对传统干预措施无效。
