Submucosal myoma resection by guidance of esophageal endoscopic ultrasound / 局解手术学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effects of submucosal resection by guidance under esophageal endoscopic ultrasound. Methods 79 cases ofsuspected upper gastrointestinal submucosal tumors were found by endoscopic ultrasonography,transesophageal endoscopic ultra-sound showed lesions under muscularis mucosa,after informed consent,they were underwent endoscopic mucosal resection. Pathological diag-nose of the lesions were found out after resection. Results Compared with pathological results showed that endoscopic ultrasound accurately determine tumor location in the hierarchy;through endoscopic mucosal resection to remove all lesions,5 patients were found bleeding postop-erative,6 patients were found esophageal stricture,the prognosis was good after treatment. Conclusion Endoscopic ultrasonography can accu-rately determine submucosal myoma,it can be used to guide resection of submucosal myoma.
