| Core Tip |
Ischemic gastritis is extremely fatal, especially in those with vascular risk. Early diagnosis and treatment is important. However, it is difficult to diagnose early unless the patient is symptomatic. Here we report seven cases of ischemic gastritis, of whom five patients died within 2 wk of diagnosis. Surgery could not be selected for our patients because of their poor general condition; instead, they were treated conservatively. Patients with improved mucosal findings on repeat endoscopy did not show increased survival. Characteristic computed tomography findings enable early detection of this disease. |
