Nihon Shokakibyo Gakkai zasshi = The Japanese journal of gastro-enterology(2020)
Abstract
An 86-year-old man was transferred to the Tokyo Medical University Hospital because of a temporary loss of consciousness and melena. We performed upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, which revealed Mallory-Weiss syndrome caused by a strong vomiting reflex. After an examination, he complained of abdominal pain, and his blood pressure decreased. Abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed fresh intra-abdominal hemorrhage. We performed transcatheter arterial embolization by using N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate to control the bleeding from the right gastroepiploic artery. Intra-abdominal hemorrhage after upper gastrointestinal endoscopy is rare, and we report this case with the literature review.
