- Endoscopic Band Ligation Versus Argon Plasma Coagulation in the Treatment of Gastric Antral Vascular Ectasia: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials(2021) HIRSCH, Bruno Salomao; RIBEIRO, Igor Braga; FUNARI, Mateus Pereira; MOURA, Diogo Turiani Hourneaux de; MATUGUMA, Sergio Eiji; SANCHEZ-LUNA, Sergio A.; MANCINI, Fabio Catache; OLIVEIRA, Guilherme Henrique Peixoto de; BERNARDO, Wanderley Marques; MOURA, Eduardo Guimaraes Hourneaux deBackground/Aims: Argon plasma coagulation (APC) is the most commonly used endoscopic treatment for gastric antral vascular ectasia (GAVE). Endoscopic band ligation (EBL) has emerged as an alternative therapy. Our goal was to evaluate the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of APC and EBL for the treatment of GAVE. This is the first systematic review that included only randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on this topic. Methods: A comprehensive search was performed using electronic databases to identify RCTs comparing APC and EBL for the treatment of GAVE following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines. Results: Four RCTs were included, with a total of 204 patients. EBL was related to higher endoscopic eradication rates risk difference [RD], 0.29; 95% confidence interval [CI] [0.14, 0.44]; I-2=0%) and less bleeding recurrence than APC (RD, 0.29; 95% CI [0.15, 0.44]; I-2=0%). Patients treated with EBL required fewer blood transfusions (mean difference [MD], 1.49; 95% CI [0.28, 2.71]; I-2=96%) and hospitalizations (MD, 0.29; 95% CI [0.19, 0.39]; I-2=0%). The number of sessions required for the obliteration of lesions was higher with APC. There was no difference in the incidence of adverse events. Conclusions: EBL is superior to APC in the treatment of GAVE in terms of endoscopic eradication rates, recurrence of bleeding, and transfusion requirements.
- Rare and Fatal Gastrointestinal Mucormycosis (Zygomycosis) in COVID-19 Patient: A Case Report(2020) MONTE JUNIOR, Epifanio Silvino do; SANTOS, Marcos Eduardo Lera dos; RIBEIRO, Igor Braga; LUZ, Gustavo de Oliveira; BABA, Elisa Ryoka; HIRSCH, Bruno Salomao; FUNARI, Mateus Pereira; MOURA, Eduardo Guimaraes Hourneaux deThe novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) quickly spread to all continents. However, data regarding all the signs and symptoms of COVID-19 are insufficient. Patients with COVID-19 might present higher susceptibility to fungal coinfections. Mucormycosis is a rare and often life-threatening fungal disease characterized by vascular invasion by hyphae, resulting in thrombosis and necrosis. This is the first case report of mucormycosis in a COVID-19 patient. An 86-year-old male patient was admitted to the emergency room with acute diarrhea, cough, dyspnea, and fever from 5 days prior. Blood tests revealed a hemoglobin level of 14.3 mg/dL. Five days following the admission, the patient presented with melena and a hemoglobin level of 5.6 mg/dL. A transfusion of three units of red blood cells was required. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed two giant gastric ulcers with necrotic debris and a deep hemorrhagic base without active bleeding. Furthermore, biopsies confirmed mucormycosis. Despite intensive care, the patient died 36 hours after the esophagogastroduodenoscopy.
