Ref.
1199864MIschemic heart diseaseNoneNoneRetrostemal pain and coffee-ground vomitusCT: A non-enhancing low-density submucosal columnar lesion in the mid- and lower oesophagus consistent with a submucosal haematoma. MRI: Intermediate signal intensity on T1-weighted images and hyperintense signal on T2-weighted images of this lesion.NoneRecoveredN/AYuen et al[9]
2200067MUnruptured cerebral aneurysmNoneHeparinHematemesisCT: A longitudinal water density mass without enhancement in the distal half of the esophageal lumen. It extended from about 3 cm below the level of the tracheal carina to the esophagocardiac junction.NoneRecoveredN/AYamashita et al[10]
3200184FDissecting aortic aneurysm NoneNoneChest discomfort and hematemesisCT: Partial thickness of the esophageal wall which was not enhanced by contrast medium.NoneRecoveredN/AKise et al[11]
4201068FCerebrovascular diseaseANoneHematemesis and retrostemal painNoneNoneRecoveredN/AZimmer et al[12]
5201332FNeurofibromatosis type 1NoneNoneSever central chest pain and interscapular pain associated with dysphagia N/AMassive bleeding with hypovolemic shock due to dissecting intramural hematoma of the esophagusDead6 hoursPomara et al[13]
6201474MCerebral infarction and chronic hepatitis CANoneHematemesisNoneNoneRecoveredN/AOe et al[2]
7201670F Unruptured cerebral aneurysmAHeparinEpigastric pain and nauseaUnknownUnknownRecoveredN/AFujimoto et al[7]
8201781M Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpuraNoneNoneChest pain and dysphagiaCT: A 17-cm long segment of homogeneous, soft tissue like density in the mid-to-distal esophagus with smooth eccentric configuration causing luminal narrowing. The maximal esophageal wall measures approximately 26 mm in thickness. Upper gastrointestinal contrast study: A large eccentric luminal narrowing caused by a mural wall compression of the mid-to-distal esophagus, confirming the submucosal hematoma.NoneRecoveredN/ASharma et al[14]

10201775F Unruptured cerebral aneurysmA+C Heparin + ArgatrobanHematemesisCT: Dilatation of the entire esophagus and the soft tissue shadow filled on the dorsal side that was ventrally displacing the lumen.NoneRecoveredN/AIto et al[16]

14202073F Unruptured cerebral aneurysmA+C HeparinHematemesisCT: A dilatation from the middle to lower esophagus, and that the esophageal lumen was almost entirely filled with hematomas. An occupying lesion with a relatively clear boundary was observed under the mucosa at the esophagogastric junction, which had partial contrast effects.NoneRecoveredN/AN/A
