For gastric leiomyomas measuring ≥5 cm, endoscopic resection is necessary. The larger size of these tumors significantly impairs the resection field of view, increasing the risk of intraoperative bleeding and perforation and potentially leading to incomplete tumor removal. The combination of dental floss and tissue clip traction techniques is commonly used for resecting mucosal lesions but is rarely reported for submucosal tumors.

Objectives: Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration/biopsy (EUS-FNA/B) is the gold standard for diagnosing gastric subepithelial lesions (SELs), but diagnosing lesions smaller than 20 mm remains challenging. We developed traction-assisted EUS-FNB (TA-EUS-FNB) using the clip-with-thread method to enhance diagnostic accuracy by stabilizing the lesion and providing counter-traction for easier needle access. This study evaluates the effectiveness of TA-EUS-FNB in diagnosing small gastric SELs.

Background: Endoscopic resection of giant gastric leiomyomas, particularly in the fundus and cardia regions, is infrequently documented and presents a significant challenge for endoscopic surgery.

Case Summary: Herein, a case of a 59-year-old woman with a giant gastric leiomyoma was reported. The patient presented to the department of hepatological surgery with a complaint of right upper abdominal pain for one month and worsening for one week.

Gastric glomus tumor with uncertain malignant potential: case report of a rare cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding.

Article Synopsis
  • Glomus tumors (GTs) are mostly benign neoplasms found in the upper gastrointestinal tract, making malignant cases exceptionally rare, which complicates diagnosis due to similarities with other tumors.
  • A 52-year-old male patient experienced fatigue and bleeding, leading to the discovery of a gastric GT after multiple examinations, with histopathology confirming it as a potentially malignant tumor.
  • The case highlights the need for detailed histopathological and molecular analysis for correct diagnosis and stresses the importance of surgical intervention and long-term monitoring for recurrence and malignancy risks.
