BACKGROUND: To investigate whether endosonography can help in the detection and treatment of Dieulafoy's disease, we examined eight patients with suspicion of Dieulafoy's disease.
METHODS: Between December 1992 and April 1995, eight patients were referred because of suspicion of Dieulafoy's disease. Seven presented with upper gastrointestinal bleeding and one with a tiny ulcer. In all eight patients the stomach was examined with an Olympus GF-UM20 echoendoscope. The stomach was filled with 200 to 400 ml of water after which the body, fundus, and cardia were carefully visualized.
RESULTS: In all eight patients a clearly visible, relatively large caliber (2 to 3 mm) vessel was seen to penetrate the muscularis propria and could be followed running through the submucosa for 2 to 4 cm. Subsequently four patients received sclerotherapy, three under endosonographic guidance. Follow-up of all patients (median 10 months), showed recurrent bleeding in two patients, 3 and 5 months after sclerotherapy. One was then diagnosed with a duodenal ulcer and one with recurrent bleeding from the Dieulafoy's lesion.
CONCLUSIONS: Endosonography is useful in the detection of Dieulafoy's disease in patients with unexplained upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Sclerotherapy can be performed during the same procedure, with endosonography-guided injection of the sclerosing agent near the abnormal vessel.
