Abstract
Gastric intramural haematoma is a very infrequent condition. It can occur due to clotted gastric haemorrhage as a result of peptic ulcer disease, or following trauma, oral anticoagulant therapy and bleeding disorders. It is usually suspected with the symptoms of gastrointestinal haemorrhage such as haematemesis, melena and haematochezia, and detected by endoscopy. In rare cases, the patient is asymptomatic or presents with non-related symptoms and can diagnosed by computerised tomography. In this case, we report the detection of a gastric intramural haematoma during abdominal ultrasonography in a hypotensive patient who was admitted to the emergency department after sliding and falling from a height.
