METHODS: A 72-year-old presented after 3 d of hematemesis. He had a 2-year history of progressive dysphagia and reported no antiplatelet, anticoagulant, or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug use. His vital signs were stable, and the hematocrit was 36%. Previous gastroscopy and barium swallow had revealed Zenker\'s diverticulum before the bleeding occurred. We performed gastroscopy and found a 5-mm ulcer with a minimal blood clot and spontaneously resolved bleeding. Z-POEM for definitive treatment was performed to reduce accumulation of food and promote ulcer healing. He had no complications and no bleeding; at the follow-up 6 mo later, the ulcer was healed.
CONCLUSIONS: Z-POEM can be definitive prevention for bleeding ulcer in Zenker\'s diverticulum that promotes ulcer healing, reducing the risk of recurrent bleeding. Z-POEM is also a definitive endoscopic surgery for treatment of Zenker\'s diverticulum.
方法:一名72岁的患者在3d吐血后出现。他有2年的进行性吞咽困难病史,报告没有抗血小板,抗凝剂,或非甾体抗炎药的使用。他的生命体征稳定,血细胞比容为36%。先前的胃镜检查和钡吞咽在出血发生前发现了Zenker憩室。我们进行了胃镜检查,发现5毫米溃疡,血凝块最少,出血自发解决。进行明确治疗的Z-POEM以减少食物的积累并促进溃疡愈合。他没有并发症,也没有出血;在6个月后的随访中,溃疡愈合。
结论:Z-POEM可以明确预防Zenker憩室出血性溃疡,促进溃疡愈合,降低复发性出血的风险。Z-POEM也是一种治疗Zenker憩室的权威内镜手术。
