Sumario:We herein report a case of intraperitoneal abscess as a postoperative complication of gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). A 70-year-old man who underwent ESD for early gastric cancer sought consultation for abdominal pain on postoperative day 28. Abdominal computed tomography revealed intraperitoneal abscess rupture. He underwent image-guided laparoscopic irrigation. His postoperative course was favorable, and he was discharged after 27 days. Intraoperatively, a white plaque adhering to the gastric wall was surrounded by a large pus volume and suspected to be ESD-associated. We present this case with a literature review of the association between intraperitoneal abscess and ESD.
