Abstract:
GAVE is a relatively rare acquired vascular disease. The most common treatment for GAVE is endoscopic therapy. Argon plasma coagulation(APC) is usually the first-line choice for endoscopic GAVE treatment, but its recurrence rate is high and often requires multiple repeated treatments. In this case, the GAVE patient recurred after two APC treatments. The results suggest that APC-treated patients with GAVE are prone to relapse. In conclusion, clinicians should regularly follow up patients who received APC treatment.
