Core Tip

Core Tip: Esophageal submucosal hematoma is a rare condition. Although the exact etiology remains uncertain, vessel fragility with external factors is considered to have led to submucosal bleeding and hematoma formation, with the vessel ruptured by a sudden increase in pressure due to nausea, and the hematoma was enlarged by antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy. Serious conditions are rare, with a better prognosis. We present the first known case of submucosal esophageal hematoma-subsequent hemorrhagic shock due to Mallory-Weiss syndrome. In addition, submucosal esophageal hematoma after coiling embolization for unruptured cerebral aneurysm is a very rare event, so there is also value in reporting this event.
