Üst Gastrointestinal Obstrüksiyonun Nadir Nedeni: Üst Gastrointestinal Obstrüksiyonun Nadir Nedeni: Büyük Lipomlar Büyük Lipomlar

Gastrointestinal lipomlar nadir görülen, benign ve yavaş büyüyen, genellikle tek olan ve submukozal yerleşim gösteren tümörlerdir. Sıklıkla asemptomatik olmakla ve insidental tanı almakla beraber, yerine ve büyüklüğüne göre kanama ve obstrüksiyon bulgularına sebep olabilirler. Semptom oluşturan büyük lipomlarda endoskopik veya cerrahi tedavi gerekli olabilir. Bu yazıda disfaji ve kusma gibi obstrüktif semptomlara neden olan ve endoskopik polipektomi ile tedavi edilen büyük özofageal ve duodenal lipom olguları bildirilmiştir.

Rare Cause of Upper Gastrointestinal Obstruction: Large Lipomas

Gastrointestinal lipomas are rare, benign, slow-growing, usually single and submucosal tumors. They are generally asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally but may be a cause of bleeding and obstructive symptoms according to their size and location. Endoscopic or surgical treatment may be necessary for large symptomatic lipomas. In this article, large esophageal and duodenal lipomas, which caused obstructive symptoms such as dysphagia and vomiting and were treated by endoscopic polypectomy, are reported.
