Abstract

Colonic angiomyolipomas (CA) are very rare benign tumors arising from perivascular epithelioid cells. CA are most often found either during screening colonoscopies or as an incidental finding during abdominal imaging. However, some rare cases of CA are found to present with abdominal pain and hematochezia. In this article, we report a case of a 62-year-old man who presented with intermittent hematochezia and constipation who was found to have an angiomyolipoma in the sigmoid colon. The lesion was successfully removed endoscopically with no recurrence of bleeding and no complications within the first 30 days after the procedure.

乙状结肠血管肌脂肪瘤是间歇性便秘和便血的罪魁祸首

结肠血管肌脂肪瘤（CA）是一种非常罕见的良性肿瘤，由血管周围上皮样细胞引起。结肠血管肌醇瘤最常见于结肠镜检查或腹部造影中偶然发现。然而，一些罕见的 CA 病例会出现腹痛和血尿。本文报告了一例 62 岁的男性病例，他出现间歇性血尿和便秘，经检查发现乙状结肠有一个血管肌脂肪瘤。我们通过内窥镜成功切除了病灶，术后 30 天内没有再出血，也没有出现并发症。
