Abstract

Eosinophilic gastritis is a rare type of eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases. Patients with eosinophilic gastritis usually present with symptoms such as nausea, emesis, abdominal pain, and weight loss. In severe cases, patients can suffer rare complications such as gastric outlet obstruction and spontaneous perforation. Here, we present the case of a young adult male who presented with acute onset abdominal pain for 1 day. The patient was found to have significant mural thickening of gastric antrum with pneumoperitoneum on abdominal CT scan, consistent with a perforated gastric ulcer. The patient underwent exploratory laparotomy and required modified graham patch repair. The diagnosis of eosinophilic gastritis was made based on the pathology review of intraoperative endoscopic biopsy specimens.
