Successful ESD of a gastric hamartomatous inverted polyp intussuscepted into a pylorus ring using a clip with a line attachment prior to incision
Although various endoscopic and surgical resections for a gastric hamartomatous inverted polyp (GHIP) have recently been reported [1] [2] [3], indications for the choice of resection method have not been established because it is a rare form of gastric polyp. The usefulness of a clip with a line attachment prior to incision for endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) has recently been reported [4] [5]. Here we report successful endoscopic resection of a huge GHIP easily intussuscepted into a pylorus ring using a clip with a line attachment prior to incision.
A 24-year-old woman presented for black stool (hemoglobin level of 9.9 g/dL). Esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed that a huge submucosal tumor (SMT) arising from the greater curvature of the pylorus ring and duodenal bulb was intussuscepted into a pylorus ring, and the lesion was retracted into the stomach ([Fig. 1] a). Endoscopic ultrasonography showed a heterogeneous lesion in the third layer of the gastric wall with variable cystic components ([Fig. 1] b). For a definitive diagnosis and treatment of this SMT, ESD was performed because distal gastrectomy is invasive.
The lesion was intussuscepted into a pylorus ring before starting ESD. First, a clip with a line was attached to the top of it, and powerful traction was applied to it prior to incision for ESD. Next, it was pulled back into the stomach using a clip with a line and grasping forceps ([Fig. 2] a). Because it was kept in the stomach, a mucosal incision was easily made in the anal side of it in retroflex view of the duodenal bulb ([Fig. 2] b). We easily made a mucosal incision and dissection was performed with the lesion kept in the stomach using a clip with a line in a forward view. Finally, it was removed. Histological examination revealed GHIP with negative resection margins ([Fig. 2] c, [Video 1]). The patient’s symptoms disappeared and her anemia improved after ESD. After about 3 months, her ulcer was completely cured and there was no stenosis at the pyloric ring ([Fig. 3] a).
