Abstract
✓ Review of 2206 consecutive necropsies showed evidence of hemorrhagic ulceration of the upper gastrointestinal tract in 7.2%. The incidence in patients dying from intracranial disorders was found to be twice that of those dying from all other causes (12.5% vs 6.0%). The distribution of lesions within the two groups was also different in that esophageal ulceration was more common in the neurological group (p < .001), while duodenal ulcers were more common in the non-neurological group (p < .001).
