Nasogastric Tube Placement

Acute gastric dilatation is the radiological finding of a massively enlarged stomach as seen on plain film X-ray or a computerized tomography scan of the abdomen. It is a rare entity with high mortality if not treated promptly and is often not reported due to a lack of physician awareness. It can occur due to both mechanical obstruction of the gastric outflow tract, or due to nonmechanical causes, such as eating disorders and gastroparesis. Acute hyperglycemia without diagnosed gastroparesis, such as in patients with diabetic ketoacidosis, may also predispose to acute gastric dilatation. Prompt placement of a nasogastric tube can help deter its serious complications of gastric emphysema, ischemia, and/or perforation. We present our experience of 2 patients who presented with severe hyperglycemia and were found to have acute gastric dilation on imaging. Only one of the patients was treated with nasogastric tube placement for decompression and eventually made a full recovery.

Benzene Hexachloride

Many drugs have been cited as possible etiologic agents in Henoch-Schönlein (anaphylactoid) purpura. I have recently seen a case of Henoch-Schönlein purpura occurring shortly after an exposure to (γ)-benzene hexachloride, an occurrence not previously documented. A 9-year-old boy was admitted to Foothills Hospital on March 12, 1979 for investigation of a skin rash of four days' duration and severe vomiting of 40 hours' duration. Six days before admission, several classmates were found to have head lice and an inspection of the patient's scalp was thought to show two nits.
