A CASE OF GASTRIC MUCOSAL BRIDGE WITH AGML

Abstract

A case of 70-year-old male patient visiting our hospital with chief complaint of tarry stools revealed extensive bleeding erosion from lower body to upper body of stomach and mucosal bridge at the lesser curvature of upper body of stomach on the upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. The mucosal bridge associated with AGML has not been reported in Japan. Therefore, this complicated lesion would be extremely rare in our country. We present here our experience with the consideration of relevant literatures.
