Résumé
Gastric intramural hematoma is a rare disease. Here we report a case of spontaneous isolated gastric intramural hematoma combined with spontaneous superior mesenteric artery intermural hematoma. A 75-years-old man was admitted to our department with complaints of abdominal pain. He underwent a whole abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan in the emergency department, which showed extensive thickening of the gastric wall in the gastric body and sinus region with enlarged surrounding lymph nodes, localized thickening of the intestinal wall in the transverse colon, localized indistinct demarcation between the stomach and transverse colon, and a small amount of fluid accumulation in the abdominal cavity. Immediately afterwards, he was admitted to our department, and then we arranged a computed tomography with intravenously administered contrast agent showed a spontaneous isolated gastric intramural hematoma combined with spontaneous superior mesenteric artery intermural hematoma. Therefore, we treated him with anticoagulation and conservative observation. During his stay in the hospital, he was given low-molecular heparin by subcutaneous injection for anticoagulation therapy, and after discharge, he was given oral anticoagulation therapy with rivaroxaban. At the follow-up of more than 4 months, most of the intramural hematoma was absorbed and became significantly smaller, and the intermural hematoma of the superior mesenteric artery was basically absorbed, which also confirmed that the intramural mass was an intramural hematoma. A gastric intramural hematoma should be considered, when an intra-abdominal mass was found to be attached to the gastric wall. Proper recognition of gastric intramural hematoma can reduce the misdiagnosis rate of confusion with gastric cancer.

BACKGROUND
BACKGROUND
Gastric intramural hematoma is a rare disease. Here we report a case of spontaneous isolated gastric intramural hematoma combined with spontaneous superior mesenteric artery intermural hematoma.
CASE PRESENTATION
METHODS
A 75-years-old man was admitted to our department with complaints of abdominal pain. He underwent a whole abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan in the emergency department, which showed extensive thickening of the gastric wall in the gastric body and sinus region with enlarged surrounding lymph nodes, localized thickening of the intestinal wall in the transverse colon, localized indistinct demarcation between the stomach and transverse colon, and a small amount of fluid accumulation in the abdominal cavity. Immediately afterwards, he was admitted to our department, and then we arranged a computed tomography with intravenously administered contrast agent showed a spontaneous isolated gastric intramural hematoma combined with spontaneous superior mesenteric artery intermural hematoma. Therefore, we treated him with anticoagulation and conservative observation. During his stay in the hospital, he was given low-molecular heparin by subcutaneous injection for anticoagulation therapy, and after discharge, he was given oral anticoagulation therapy with rivaroxaban. At the follow-up of more than 4 months, most of the intramural hematoma was absorbed and became significantly smaller, and the intermural hematoma of the superior mesenteric artery was basically absorbed, which also confirmed that the intramural mass was an intramural hematoma.
CONCLUSION
CONCLUSIONS
A gastric intramural hematoma should be considered, when an intra-abdominal mass was found to be attached to the gastric wall. Proper recognition of gastric intramural hematoma can reduce the misdiagnosis rate of confusion with gastric cancer.
