Gastric antral vascular ectasia: a case report and review of the literature Herman BE; Vargo JJ; Baum S; Silverman ED; Eisold JJ Nucl Med 1996[May]; 37 (5): 854-6We present an 83-yr-old woman with a history of renal insufficiency, diabetes and idiopathic purpura (ITP) who experienced recurrent hemorrhage from gastric antral vascular ectasias (GAVE). METHODS: Extensive evaluation consisting of barium small bowel series, colonoscopy, abdominal CT scan and visceral angiography excluded other causes of bleeding. RESULTS: After 99mTc-labeled red cell imaging to localize the bleeding to the antrum, an antrectomy was performed. Seven months postsurgery, the patient experienced no further hemorrhage. CONCLUSION: 99mTc-labeled red cell scans can be used for the diagnosis of GAVE.|Aged[MESH]|Aged, 80 and over[MESH]|Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2/complications[MESH]|Diagnosis, Differential[MESH]|Dilatation, Pathologic/complications/diagnostic imaging[MESH]|Erythrocytes[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Gastrointestinal Hemorrhage/diagnostic imaging/*etiology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Purpura, Thrombocytopenic, Idiopathic/complications[MESH]|Pyloric Antrum/*blood supply[MESH]|Radionuclide Imaging[MESH]|Renal Insufficiency/complications[MESH]|Technetium[MESH] |
