Abstract:
Objective To explore the characteristics and prognosis of cases of gastric duplication after endoscopic resection.
Methods From January 2017 to January 2021, 9 patients treated with endoscopic resection and with pathologically confirmed diagnosis of gastric duplication in Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University were included. The medical records were retrospectively reviewed to obtain information regarding patient demographics, clinicopathological features, pathological results, hospital day, complications and follow-up results.
Results A total of 9 patients were included in this study, among which 6 were males and 3 were females. Lesions were found at the upper third (n=2), middle third (n=2) or lower third (n=5) of the stomach. Lesions presented as submucosal tumor-like (SMT-like) appearance (n=8) or elevated polyp type (n=1), macroscopically. The median hospital day was 2 (1.5, 4) days. In all, no patient endured peri-operative complications. The median follow-up time was 46 (26, 51) months, no local residual or recurrence was detected during follow-up.
Conclusions Endoscopic resection appears to be a safe and effective choice for treatment of gastric duplication.
