Argon plazma koagülasyon ile tedavi edilen gastrik anjiodisplazi: İki olgu sunumu

Anjiodisplaziler nadir fakat gastrointestinal kanamanın önemli bir sebebidir. Yaygın olarak kolonda görülmekle birlikte nadir olarak midede de saptanır. Bu lezyonların tedavisinde farklı endoskopik tedavi yöntemleri kullanılmasına rağmen günümüzde argon plazma koagülasyon en sık kullanılan kullanılan yöntemdir. Burada argon plazma koagülasyon ile başarılı şekilde tedavi edilmiş aşikar kanamaya sebep olan iki gastrik anjiodisplazi vakası sunuyoruz. Bu lezyonların argon plazma koagülasyon ile endoskopik tedavisini tartıştık. argon plazma koagülasyon’nın aşikar kanama ile başvuran gastrik anjiodisplaziler’nin tedavisinde güvenli, etkili ve kolay uygulanan bir tedavi yöntemi olduğunu düşünmekteyiz.

Gastric angiodysplasia treated with argon plasma coagulation: A report of two cases

Angiodysplasias are rare but important causes of gastrointestinal bleeding thtat are commonly seen in the colon but rarely in the stomach. Although various endoscopic modalities are used for the treatment of these lesions, argon plasma coagulation is the most commonly used approach. We present a report of two cases of gastric angiodysplasias leading to overt gastrointestinal bleeding, which were successfully treated with argon plasma coagulation. The procedure is a safe, effective and easy to use modality for the treatment of gastric angiodysplasias that present with overt gastrointestinal bleeding.
