Abstract

Objective

To report a case of endoscopic enucleation of a gastrointestinal stromal tumor of the ampulla of Vater.

Design

The tumor resection was performed by needle knife endoscopic submucosal dissection.

Results

The tumor was resected completely without serious complications and the patient recovered rapidly.

Conclusion

Endoscopic enucleation may be an alternative treatment for gastrointestinal stromal tumors of the ampulla of Vater for patients who fulfill certain requirements.

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
