Gastric diverticula following subtotal gastrectomy.

Four cases of gastric diverticula following subtotal gastrectomy are described. This type of diverticula associated with partial gastrectomy are probably true, acquired, pulsion diverticula. In two of our patients the diverticula were associated with significant prolapse of gastric mucosa causing obstruction at the anastomosis.

[Rare causes of acute gastric hemorrhage].

According to the author's findings rare causes of acute gastric hemorrhages (the Mallory-Weiss syndrome, cancerous lesions of the gastrointestinal organs, excluding the stomach, esophageal and duodenal diverticulum, prolapse of gastric mucosa into the duodenum, necrosis of the gastric wall, its traumatic rupture, the Rendu-Osler disease, rupture of the renal artery aneurysm) made 3.2% of other causes. Profuse hemorrhage was noted in 12 of 32 patients under consideration. In 8 of 32 patients (25%) the diagnosis was established only at autopsy. In other more frequent causes of acute gastric hemorrhage the diagnosis proved to be feasible in 90-95% of cases.

Acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding in the aged. A retrospective analysis of 100 cases.

One hundred consecutive patients (predominantly men, aged 60 years and older), who were admitted to the Hsinhua Hospital, Shanghai, with acute bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract during a three-year period, were reviewed. The most common causes of bleeding were peptic ulcers, chronic gastritis, prolapse of gastric mucosa, and other benign conditions. In 22 patients, bleeding was either due to oesophageal varices, or was a complication of cor pulmonale. The incidence of malignant disease was 23% (higher than that reported from the United States or the United Kingdom). The mortality rate in patients with benign causes of gastrointestinal bleeding (after exclusion of patients with malignant disease, cor pulmonale, and hepatic cirrhosis) was 4.4%--much lower than the British rate, but slightly higher than that reported in an Australian study. It is hoped that, with the increasing interest in geriatrics, and closer attention to acute bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract in the aged, the mortality rate from this condition will decline.

Recurrent retching with gastric mucosal prolapse. A proposed prolapse gastropathy syndrome.

A clinical syndrome is described in 22 patients who present with epigastric pain alone or with hematemesis which is associated with a precedent history of recurrent early morning retching or postprandial retching. The characteristic endoscopic finding is a knuckle of inflamed and sometimes bleeding gastric mucosa which repeatedly prolapses into the esophageal lumen during retching. Other upper gastrointestinal lesions are not found. Retching is thought to cause the forceful prolapse and subsequent traumatization of gastric mucosa. The episodes of vigorous retching and resultant gastric trauma are now considered to be the cause of the abdominal pain and hematemesis, and it is proposed that this combination of clinical features illustrates a distinct syndrome which we have called prolapse gastropathy. This condition is a significant cause of hematemesis and abdominal pain in a group of nonalcoholic patients who demonstrate an unusual sensitivity to gag and retch.

Duodenal pseudotumor with ball-valve syndrome.

Prolapse of the gastric mucosa into the duodenum must be considered when a round soft tissue mass is seen in the right upper quadrant on scout abdominal film. Gastric prolapse may mimic tumor in the duodenum when the prolapse is large. Examination with barium meal is necessary to exclude prolapse of the gastric mucosa into the duodenum as a cause of epigastric pain and vomiting. Medical treatment is suggested for patients with mild symptoms, but patients with severe symptoms, repeated hemorrhage, anemia, severe intermittent epigastric pain and vomiting due to ball-valve syndrome should have operation.
