(A) Gastroduodenoscopy reveals mucosal necrosis of the gastric upper body. (B) Computed tomography was done after the gastroduodenoscopy. As a result, computed tomography showed marked distention of the stomach with decreased wall enhancement. (C) On plain radiograph there is marked distention of the stomach, but the gastric band is positioned correctly.

(A) Computed tomography shows decreased wall enhancement and an intramural air density along the gastric wall. The arrows indicated the gastric pneumatosis. (B) On plain radiograph the gastric band is oriented correctly but has shifted to the right of the midline because of gastric distention; an air density is seen over the gastric wall. It is marked by the arrows.

(A) Mucosal (left) and serosal (right) sides of the stomach in the patient described in case 1. The gastric wall shows segmental black discoloration and edema because of transmural infarction and necrosis with inflammation. (B) Mucosal (left) and serosal (right) sides of the stomach in the patient described in case 2. The gastric wall is thickened and necrotized by edema and transmural hemorrhagic infarction.
