Children with cerebralpalsy (CP) develop difficulties with swallowing and bowel motility, although the underlying etiology of these disorders is unclear.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Vomiting and abdominalpain, although rare in PWS, were frequent findings in this cohort. The physician should consider an emergent evaluation for gastric rupture and necrosis in individuals with PWS who present with vomiting and abdominalpain.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
We report a 37-year-old primigravida with a gastric band who developed the clinical picture of abdominalpain, vomiting and regurgitation coexistent with a cardiotocogram with severe variable decelerations with absent variability at 33 weeks' gestation[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Sharp abdominalpain was present immediately after surfacing and afterwards. Full abdominal distension developed within two hours after the ascent. No other diving-related pathology was found.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Abdominalpain or persistent abdominal distention despite nasogastric suction after the Heimlich maneuver should prompt evaluation for possible gastric rupture.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Both patients exhibited symptoms of abdominalpain and distension following oxygen delivery involving a nasopharyngeal catheter during procedural sedation. Oxygen flow rates were 4 l/minute in both cases. The diagnosis was made by urgent imaging.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The clinical manifestations include severe abdominaldistension, vomiting, and respiratory distress. However, diagnosis is based on an upright x-ray film of the abdomen which shows the "saddle" of "football" sign due to massive pneumoperitoneum.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Although very few cases have been reported in which the esophagus has inadvertently been intubated resulting in gastric perforation, this is a potential possibility and should be borne in mind when intubation is followed by abdominaldistension, rigidity[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
This case reports on idiopathic gastric rupture in a 3-mo-old girl who had frequent episodes of vomiting and abdominaldistension the day before admission to the clinic.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Full abdominaldistension developed within two hours after the ascent. No other diving-related pathology was found.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Although abdominaldistension was noticed during the physical examination, muscular rigidity was not detected on palpation. Laboratory data showed severe hypotonic dehydration and moderate metabolic acidosis with hyperkalemia.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In the unit, the patient became irritable and severeabdominalpain was noted. A semi-erect chest X-ray ( Fig. 1 ) revealed a massive pneumoperitoneum. Emergency laparotomy was performed for suspected perforated hollow viscus.[academic.oup.com]
Gastrointestinal perforation results in severeabdominalpain intensified by movement, nausea, vomiting and hematemesis. Later symptoms include fever and or chills. [6] In any case, the abdomen becomes rigid with tenderness and rebound tenderness.[en.wikipedia.org]

The patient was admitted to a neighboring hospital because of vertigo with 1-day history of intractable vomiting and epigastricpain.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
He reported epigastricpain and his upper abdomen was tender, with guarding. The child was cooperative and did not carry any other major wounds. No pain could be elicited in the thorax, the pelvis, or other areas of the body.[panafrican-med-journal.com]
On full awakening in the recovery room, the patient complained of severe epigastricpain. On examination, her abdomen was rigid and markedly distended, with guarding and rebound tenderness present.[anesthesiology.pubs.asahq.org]
The patient was intubated and a noradrenaline infusion started due to marked hypotension, unresponsive to fluids. Imaging studies revealed a left pulmonary atelectasis and a massive pneumoperitoneum.[omicsonline.org]

Gastric rupture with resulting tension pneumoperitoneum occurs rarely in infants. It may be associated with resuscitative efforts.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In cases of vigorous mouth-to-mouth ventilation, bag-valve-mask ventilation, or esophageal intubation, gastric rupture and massive intraperitoneal free air may cause tension pneumoperitoneum.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
We report a case of a much rarer complication: gastric rupture with pneumoperitoneum. Prompt recognition and surgical intervention help minimize adverse outcomes from complications such as tension pneumoperitoneum with shock, peritonitis, and sepsis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Tension pneumoperitoneum occurred with acute respiratory distress. Gastric rupture occurring during cardio-pulmonary resuscitation has been reported several times. Our case illustrates another unusual cause of tension pneumoperitoneum.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Inadvertent esophageal intubation during cardiopulmonary resuscitation following aortocoronary bypass grafting resulted in gastric rupture and tension pneumoperitoneum in a 65-year-old patient.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Most complications are a result of the massive intraperitoneal contamination that ensues after rupture of a distended stomach and usually account for the late mortality. 1,2 The most common complications are intra-abdominal abscess, gastricfistula formation[appliedradiology.com]
The following associated characteristics were analysed: mechanism of injury, clinical presentation, possible associated injuries and postoperative complications, diagnosis methods and surgical treatment.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The aggressive operative treatment of these patients is emphasized along with the vigorous attention that must be given to postoperative intra-abdominal sepsis caused by the initial contamination leading to morbidity and mortality.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Awareness of this unusual complication may lead to early recognition and successful treatment.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Since clinical condition of gastric rupture deteriorates rapidly, early diagnosis and appropriate treatment is essential for good prognosis. One should consider that ulcer formation might cause gastric rupture in childhood.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The prognosis can be poor, especially if diagnosis is delayed. We suggest the early CT scan intervention is more helpful and necessary if SB tube related esophageal rupture is suspected. C. T. Lin, T. W. Huang, S. C. Lee, S. M. Kuo, K. F. Hsu, P. S.[scielo.isciii.es]

Children with cerebral palsy (CP) develop difficulties with swallowing and bowel motility, although the underlying etiology of these disorders is unclear.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Current opinions regarding the possible etiology is included in the discussion. Neonatal asphyxia was the most commonly seen predisposing cause in our series (63%). Roentgenograms of the abdomen are most helpful in making a positive diagnosis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

I think, sudden gastric rupture can be prevented by physically decompressing the area. Anaesthesia and analgesics should be avoided since they cause the stomach muscles to relax, thus counteracting the decompression.[myproana.com]

Gastric dilatation alters the gastro-esophageal angle and prevents the exit of gas into the esophagus [ 4, 14 ]. Pressures from 120 to 150 mmHg are required to perforate the normal gastric wall [ 2 ].[omicsonline.org]
