Bean Syndrom: About An Observation And Review Of The Literature
Abstract
We report the case of a 14-year-old girl who presented chronic anemia after a digestive hemorrhage episode. Clinically, she presented other sites manifestly of vascular proliferation (vulva). Upper digestive fibroscopy showed a very hemorrhagic polyp of the greater curvature of the stomach, and another of the duodenum. The jejunal tumor was removed for pathological examination. The specimen was a pedunculated polypoid fragment measuring 1.5 cm of long axis. The section showed polycystic section with brown contents. The histological diagnosis was a cavernous hemangioma.
Taking into account clinical, endoscopic, laparoscopic, and histopathological datas, the diagnosis of Bean syndrom was retained.
