ABSTRACT
Gastric lipomas are rare benign tumors and account for 1-3% of all benign gastric tumors. Majority of the gastric lipomas are asymptomatic and do not demand resection. However, large gastric lipomas may present with upper gastrointestinal bleeding and more rarely gastric outlet obstruction. Traditionally, surgery has been utilized for the management of giant gastric lipomas. More recently, endoscopic techniques are increasingly utilized for the resection of gastric submucosal lesions. Here we describe a case with large gastric lipoma who presented with symptoms suggestive of gastric outlet obstruction. Gastroscopy revealed a large (6 cm) submucosal lesion with a broad peduncle located in antrum. The tumor was prolapsing into duodenum thereby, completing occluding the pylorus. In this case, we performed endoscopic submucosal dissection using a novel, bipolar radiofrequency device. The dissection was completed without any complications.
