AI Article Synopsis

  • Advances in endoscopic technology have led to a reduction in surgeries for duodenal ulcer bleeding, though complex cases still require surgical intervention.
  • The damage control surgery (DCS) concept, originating from trauma surgery, suggests that simpler surgical techniques may be beneficial for severe cases like uncontrolled DU bleeding.
  • A successful case is highlighted where a patient with massive hematoma and perforation from an over-the-scope clip was treated with a minimally invasive surgical method, considering DCS principles.

Article Abstract

Due to the advances in endoscopic technology, surgery for duodenal ulcer (DU) bleeding has decreased, although surgery is still necessary for more complicated cases. The concept of damage control surgery (DCS) has been established in the field of trauma, and a simple surgical approach may be preferable in serious cases such as uncontrolled DU bleeding. We present a successful case of bleeding with massive hematoma and perforation of the duodenum due to an over-the-scope clip that was treated by a less invasive surgical approach with consideration of the DCS.
