Plexiform fibroma gástrico que se presenta con hemorragia gastrointestinal
1Department of Internal Medicine, Yeungnam University College of Medicine, Daegu, Korea.
Resumen
El fibroma mixoide plexiforme (FP) es una lesión subepitelial rara que causa hemorragia. Este caso destaca el diagnóstico de FP después de la resección quirúrgica por sangrado de una lesión monitoreada previamente.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Gastroenterología
- Patología
- Oncología Quirúrgica
Sus antecedentes:
- El fibroma mixoide plexiforme (FP) es un tumor mesenquimatoso excepcionalmente raro.
- El FP se presenta como una lesión subepitelial (LSE) en el tracto gastrointestinal.
- La diferenciación endoscópica del FP de otras LSE es un desafío y la hemorragia es una complicación conocida.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Informar un caso de fibroma mixoide plexiforme diagnosticado postoperatoriamente.
- Revisar la literatura existente sobre el fibroma mixoide plexiforme.
- Enfatizar los desafíos diagnósticos y el manejo del FP que se presenta con hemorragia.
Principales métodos:
- Informe de caso de un paciente con hemorragia sintomática de una lesión subepitelial.
- Resección quirúrgica y examen histopatológico para diagnóstico definitivo.
- Revisión exhaustiva de la literatura sobre el fibroma mixoide plexiforme.
Principales resultados:
- El paciente se sometió a resección quirúrgica por hemorragia atribuida a una lesión subepitelial.
- La histopatología confirmó el diagnóstico de fibroma mixoide plexiforme.
- La revisión de la literatura confirmó la rareza y la similitud endoscópica con otras LSE.
Conclusiones:
- El fibroma mixoide plexiforme es un tumor mesenquimatoso raro que se presenta como una lesión subepitelial.
- La hemorragia es una manifestación clínica significativa que requiere intervención quirúrgica.
- El diagnóstico definitivo se basa en la resección quirúrgica y el análisis histopatológico.

Gastric Motility
2.9K
Gastric motility is the coordinated contraction and relaxation of stomach muscles that convert ingested food into chyme, a semi-liquid substance ready for further digestion in the intestines. The process begins with the vagus nerve inducing the relaxation of the smooth muscles in the fundus and body of the stomach, allowing these regions to expand and accommodate up to approximately 1.5 liters of food and liquid.

Anatomy of the Gastrointestinal System

The human digestive system is an intricate and essential network for nutrient absorption and waste elimination. It encompasses the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and several accessory organs.

Gastric Emptying
3.4K
Gastric emptying occurs when the stomach gradually releases chyme into the duodenum. When the stomach is distended, it triggers the release of gastrin, a hormone that promotes gastric acid secretion to aid in digestion. Additionally, stomach distension contributes to peristaltic waves that propel gastric contents toward the pyloric region. The gastroenteric reflex, on the other hand, primarily stimulates peristalsis in the intestines, facilitating the movement of contents further along the...

Gastric Phase of Digestion
3.1K
The gastric phase of digestion begins as soon as food enters the stomach. The incoming food bolus triggers neural and hormonal mechanisms, which last approximately 3 to 4 hours. During this phase, the stomach undergoes significant changes to prepare the food for further digestion and absorption.
When food enters the stomach, it stretches the stomach walls and activates stretch receptors. This triggers local reflexes of the enteric nervous system, mediated through the myenteric plexus. These...

Histology of the Gastrointestinal (GI) Tract
3.3K
The GI tract, from beginning to end, is made up of four continuous tissue layers that adjust their structure according to their specific roles. These layers, from innermost to outermost, are known as the mucosa, submucosa, muscularis, and serosa, which are continuous with the mesentery.
The mucosa is sometimes called a mucous membrane due to its mucus-secreting features. This membrane is composed of epithelium, which directly interacts with ingested substances, and the lamina propria, a layer...

Gastrointestinal Motility Disorders
1.1K
Gastrointestinal or GI motility disorders are characterized by irregular gastrointestinal tract movements, disrupting food transit from the mouth to the anus. They are caused by damage or dysfunction in gut muscles or nerves. These disorders can cause symptoms such as severe constipation, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and swallowing difficulties. Disorders can affect any segment of the GI tract and range widely in severity, from common conditions like GERD to life-threatening conditions like...
