A rare case, a 59-years-old male, complicated dreamy state after endoscopic polypectomy of the polyp of duodenal bulb was experienced.
Though the consciousness level of the patient depressed, he had a memory of doctor's conversation in the course of and after endoscopic polypectomy. It is different from global amnesia. This case is the first experience in our department. We couldn't find the same report of dreamy state caused by gastroduodenal endoscopy in references. It's necessary for us to aware that endoscopy rarely cause depression of consciousness level.
