摘要：In our previous study, the healing effect of proton pump inhibitor plus rebamipide for endoscopic submucosal dissection-related artificial ulcer smaller than 40 mm showed statistical significance. However, such effect of the combination was not yet clear for ulcers with dissected diameter more than 40 mm. The aim of this present study was to resolve this problem under sufficient statistical power, with adequate sample size. We conducted a randomized controlled study. Either the proton pump inhibitor mono-therapy or the combination therapy was prescribed for 28 days after endoscopic submucosal dissection. Eighty-seven patients were eligible for outcome evaluation. Combination therapy was significantly superior to mono-therapy, 27.8% vs 0% reached healing stage (scar stage) in cases with ulcers of dissection diameter more than 40 mm. In conclusion, the combination therapy with rebamipide was favorable regimen in patients with larger artificial ulcer after endoscopic submucosal dissection.
