초록

Massive gastric mucosal ruptures during upper gastrointestinal endoscopy in patients with esophageal hiatal hernias are rare. However, tearing of the gastric mucosa alone, without tearing of the gastroesophageal junction, is even rarer. This study reports a case of a large mucosal rupture that occurred on the posterior wall of the upper body of the stomach during upper gastrointestinal endoscopy in an 83-year-old woman with an esophageal hiatal hernia while sedated. The patient was treated with endoclips for the rupture.
