Symptomatic duodenal lipoma with endoscopic snare polypectomy

Abstract: Duodenal lipomas are extremely rare benign tumors. 90% arise from the submucosa and is usually localized in the second portion. They are usually asymptomatic and are detected incidentally during endoscopy or surgery. Appearance of symptoms are related to lesion size, those greater than four centimeters frequently may cause intussusception, obstruction or bleeding.

“…[5][6][7][8][9][10][11] We summarized a review of the literature on duodenal lipomas with GI bleeding (Table 1). [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] We conducted an online search in PubMed for "duodenal lipoma" and "bleeding". The etiology of the ulceration and bleeding in the lipomas was unclear, the overlying mucosae of most duodenal lipomas were intact, and some duodenal lipomas had mucosae with areas of ulceration or erosion.…”

Snare polipektomi ileri derecede büyük olmayan veya pediküllü lipomlarda güvenle uygulanabilir (11). Cerrahi tedavi intussusepsiyon veya obstrüksiyon gelişmiş olgularda, kitlenin malign potansiyelinin net olarak ekarte edilemediği durumlarda endike olabilir.…”
