Abstract

Carcinoid tumors rarely cause macroscopic upper gastrointestinal tract hemorrhagies. However, massive upper gastrointestinal tract hemorrhagies caused by gastric karsinoid tumors are far less common. In this paper, two cases which infiltrate to splenic artery and cause massive upper gastrointestinal system are presented and gastric carcinoid tumors are discussed. Key words: Gastric carcinoid tumor, Upper gastrointestinal tract hemorrhagie

Özet

Karsinoid tümörler nadiren makroskopik üst gastrointestinal sistem kanamasına neden olurlar. Bununla birlikte, gastrik karsinoid tümörlere bağlı masif gastrointestinal sistem kanamaları daha da nadir görülen bir durumdur. Bu makalede splenik artere invazyon yaparak masif üst gastrointestinal sistem kanamasına neden olan iki olgu sunulmuş ve gastrik karsinoid tümörler tartışılmıştır. Anahtar kelimeler: Gastrik karsinoid tümör, Üst gastrointestinal sistem kanaması

Keywords

Gastrik karsinoid tümör Üst gastrointestinal sistem kanaması Gastric carcinoid tumor Upper gastrointestinal tract hemorrhagie
