Abstract

Hemorrhagic radiation proctosigmoiditis is a serious complication of pelvic radiation therapy. Pharmacotherapy is generally ineffective in the treatment of chronic radiation proctitis. Argon plasma coagulation is an effective, safe and well-tolerated therapy option for radiation proctitis. We report a case of hemorrhagic radiation proctosigmoiditis treated successfully with Argon plasma coagulation. We used argon plasma coagulation for mucosal coagulation in painting pattern set at 1.5 L/min and 60 W. After five therapy sessions with argon plasma coagulation, the patient’s rectal bleeding and anemia resolved. After four months of argon plasma coagulation therapy, the patient is well and her endoscopic examination showed remarkable improvement of the vascular lesions. Blood transfusion requirement was resolved after therapy, and hemoglobin level increased from 8.2 g/dl to 11.5 g/dl. Argon plasma coagulation therapy may be useful as alternative treatment for hemorrhagic radiation proctitis. Future prospective controlled trials are necessary to confirm the efficacy of argon plasma coagulation in the treatment of radiation proctitis.

Özet

Hemorajik radyasyon proktosigmoidit, pelvik radyasyon tedavisinin ciddi komplikasyonlarından biridir. Tedavisinde ilaç tedavisi genellikle etkili değildir. Hemorajik proktitin tedavisinde argon plazma koagülasyon güvenli, iyi tolere edilen, ucuz ve etkili bir tedavi seçeneğidir. Bu yazıda argon plazma koagülasyon ile tedavi edilen hemorajik radyasyon kolit vakası sunuldu. Hastaya 1.5L /dakika ve 60 Watt dozunda beş seans argon plazma koagülasyon tedavisi ile mukozayı boyar tarzda koagulasyon uygulandı. Bu tedavi sonunda hastanın anemisi ve rektal kanaması düzeldi. Argon plazma koagülasyon tedavisinden 4 ay sonra hastanın durumu iyiydi ve endoskopik muayenede vasküler lezyonların belirgin şekilde iyileştiği gözlendi. Daha önceki sürekli kan trasfüzyon ihtiyacı kayboldu. Ayrıca hemoglobin düzeyinin 8.2 gr/dl den 11.5 gr/dl ye çıktığı görüldü. Sonuç olarak argon plazma koagülasyon, hemorajik radyasyon proktitin tedavisinde alternatif tedavi seçeneği olarak kullanılabilir. Ancak bu konuda prospektif geniş vaka serisi olan çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
