Abstract Gastric diverticula are usually asymptomatic. When
symptoms surface, they are mostly upper abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting,
while dyspepsia is less common. In this case, there was determined as an
incidental of gastric diverticula that was managed by medical treatment.
70-year-old male came to our clinic complaining chronic epigastric pain and
dyspepsia, with no known co-morbidities. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy and
tomography were performed at diagnosis. Medical treatment (proton pump
inhibitor) was started and followed because the gastric diverticulum was 2 cm
below. The patient is still under follow-up and has no clinical findings. |
Özet Gastrik divertiküller genellikle
asemptomatiktir. Semptomlar ortaya çıktığında, çoğunlukla üst karın ağrısı,
bulantı ve kusma olurken, dispepsi daha az görülür. Bu olguda da tıbbi tedavi
ile yönetilen bir gastrik divertikül insidental olarak saptanmıştır. 70
yaşında erkek hasta bilinen bir morbiditesi olmayan kronik epigastrik ağrı ve
dispepsi şikayeti ile kliniğimize başvurdu. Tanıda, özofagogastroduodenoskopi
ve tomografi yapıldı. Gastrik divertikül, 2 cm altında olduğundan medikal
tedaviye (proton pompa inhibitörü) başlandı ve takip edildi. Hasta halen
takip edilmekte ve klinik bulgusu da bulunmamaktadır. |
