We performed endoscopic submucosal dissection of a gastric fundus tumor. It was difficult to strip the tumor completely due to space limitation, and we used blunt dissection to remove the tumor quickly and safely. Firstly, the basal area of the 2.5 cm submucosal tumor located in the gastric fundus was cut open, and the mucosa was dissected. The tumor was difficult to peel, therefore, a snare was used and the tumor was pulled and tightened slightly. Short electronic coagulation was used during the procedure. The tumor was then bluntly dissected. This method ensured rapid and complete removal of the tumor.
Rectal foreign bodies are man-made injury that occurs occasionally. The management depends on its depth and the consequence it caused. We here report a case of rectal foreign body (a glass bottle measuring about 38 mm × 75 mm) which was located 13-15 cm from the anus. The patient had no sign of perforation, and we managed to remove it using endoscopy with gastrolith forceps.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
