Core Tip Emphysematous gastritis is a rare gastrointestinal emergency that can be life-threatening, as it occurs when gas accumulates in the stomach wall due to gas-producing bacteria or ischemia. The patient reported in this case received successful non-surgical management despite having multiple health comorbidities and a history of several abdominal surgeries, reflecting the high mortality risk associated with emphysematous gastritis. This medical presentation underscores the importance of early diagnosis and demonstrates how non-operative therapy can be advantageous for high-risk elderly patients.
