Ischaemic Gastropathy: An Under-Recognised cause of Abdominal Pain.

Abstract

Awareness needs to be increased regarding the consideration of ischaemic gastropathy as a differential diagnosis.A patient without a history of vascular compromise could have a diagnosis of ischaemic gastropathy.This is possibly the first noted case of ischaemic gastropathy occurring after an appendectomy, which is complicated by gram-negative bacteraemia and haemodynamic instability.
