Aims Management of bleeding GISTs is challenging. We report three cases of bleeding GISTs successfully treated under EUS-guidance.
Methods Patients characteristics, type of procedure and clinical outcome are shown in the video.
Results One adverse event was observed. An intratumoral bleeding after the punction of a 22G needle, succesfully managed by EUS-guided deployement of a coil plus CYA. Clinical outcome in the three patients was uneventful until scheduled surgery.
Conclusions EUS-guided therapy of bleeding GISTs was effective in these three cases and could be another endoscopic procedure in bleeding GISTs aiming to obtained hemostasis until scheduled surgical therapy.
