Abstract
|
|
|
A 44-year-old woman who comlpained of dizziness and generalized weakness was admitted. The hemoglobin was 6.6g/dL, hematocrit 25.5%, and serum ferritin 2.14ng/ml. Stool occult blood was positive and microcytic hypochromic anemia was round on
peripheral
blood smear. Gastroscopic examination showed about 2×1cm sized hemispherical submucosal tumor on antrum. The patient underwent operation for confirmatory diagnosis and treatment. The final pathologic diagnosis of the resected lesion was
hemangioma
of
stomach.
Cavernous hemangioma of stomach is a rare disease. Mostly, it has a benign course clinically, but early diagnosis is important because massive hemorrhage and anemia by chronic blood loss can occur.
We report a case of hemangioma of stomach with review of literature.
